Presenting from a Memory Card or Digital Camera

Creating a Scenario

A scenario is a combination of images, movies, and/or audio files that
you can present from a memory card. The easiest way to create a
scenario is to drag and drop a PowerPoint file on the

EMP

SlideMaker2

icon on your desktop. This automatically converts the

file, which you can save to the memory card. Use this method if you
have an existing PowerPoint presentation that you want to transfer to
the projector.

If you prefer, you can create a scenario from scratch by combining a
selection of PowerPoint slides, other graphics, and even movies (see
page 104).

Converting a PowerPoint File to a Scenario

Follow these steps to convert a PowerPoint file to scenario. Once the
scenario is created, you can add transitions as described on page 108.

1. Locate the PowerPoint file you want to use in My Computer or

Windows Explorer.

2. Make sure the EMP SlideMaker program is closed. Then drag the

file icon on top of the

EMP SlideMaker2

icon on your

desktop.

3. You see a message that some transitions are not supported.

Click

OK

.

EMP SlideMaker starts, and your PowerPoint slides open
one-by-one as they are converted. Do not interrupt this process,
or your PowerPoint file won’t be completely converted.

note

Before starting, make sure
you’ve installed EMP
SlideMaker as described in
Appendix A.
