Hi Jay,

This is a hint : you have to reduce your text length. Every presentation program does the same.


Michel

I suspected as much because the slide should be a highlight not the entire text. When I give presentations/lectures/talks I use the slides to keep me on track.

Jay

I recently saw one of the best presentations ever, which did not have a single bullet point, and scarcely any text at all. Each slide was an image that illustrated the thought involved.

My rule is that if people can understand your content just by reading the slides, you are doing it wrong. And in that case, just give them the slides to review on their own time and cancel the meeting.

Regards,
