PowerPoint 2010

PowerPoint 2010 gives you more ways to create and share dynamic presentations with your audience than ever before. Exciting new audio and visual capabilities help you tell a crisp, cinematic story that's as easy to create as it is powerful to watch. With new and improved tools for video and photo editing, dramatic new transitions, and realistic animation, you can add polish to presentations that will captivate your audience.

• Set your presentations apart with many new and improved slide transitions, including high-quality 3D transitions that rival broadcast graphics
• Easily access, preview, apply, customize, and replace animations, and use the new Animation Painter to easily copy animations from one object to another
• Use dozens of additional SmartArt layouts to create many types of graphics, such as organization charts, lists, and picture diagrams
• Create diagrams as easily as typing a bulleted list or convert text and images to a diagram in just a few clicks
• Transform your images into compelling, vibrant visuals by using new and improved picture-editing features such as color saturation and temperature, brightness and contrast, and an advanced cropping tool, along with artistic filters such as blur, paintbrush, and watercolor
• Divide a presentation into logical slide groups, rename sections to help you manage content—such as assigning slides to a particular author—or easily print just one section of slides
• View and edit multiple presentations independently, side by side, or even on separate monitors
• Access your favorite commands even more quickly by customizing tabs or creating your own to personalize the experience to your work style
• Use the new Backstage view to save, share, print, and publish your presentations with just a few clicks
