 * How to Print || How to print one or more slides per page, with lines to take notes, print speaker's notes, or an outline of all the text in the presentation. ||

 * Add Website Links || You may add links to websites within your PowerPoint presentation.

 * Insert a YouTube Video || YouTube is a video sharing website where users can upload and share video clips. You must have an active Internet connection to insert a YouTube video and again to view the video when the PowerPoint presentation is run. This document will guide you through both processes: inserting and playing the video from the PowerPoint presentation, while also seeing your slide without any advertisements from YouTube. ||
