Presentation Data

Upon preparing your presentation data, please keep in mind the following:

• Create or edit your presentation data using Windows OS/PowerPoint.
• Session room PCs at the meeting venue run Windows & PowerPoint 2007/2010/2013/2016 only.

  Century, Century Gothic.
• Make sure CD-R is finalized (i.e. closing the ongoing session) when copying your presentation file to CD-R.
• Be careful and do not forget to finalize your CD-R, otherwise the presentation file on the CD-R would not open on other PCs than you used to create the file, making it impossible to use the file in presentation.
• Only Windows formats are acceptable for CD-R and USB flash memory. Be advised that Macintosh formats are not supported on the PCs provided on site.
• Save only a single final version of your presentation file on CD-R or USB and make sure there is no other files or data on the media.

• This is applicable especially to Macbook Air users.

Equipment for Presentation
