In case you happen to be a beginner, you will usually start by choosing a template and then replacing the placeholder texts and images so as to create a new presentation. You will come across quite a few templates with Microsoft PowerPoint which will allow you to set the presentation’s tone. As a matter of fact, it is not at all difficult to start using this software and almost anyone with basic computer skills can do it. Microsoft PowerPoint, which was introduced in the 1990s, is mainly intended for creating slides which can be used during live presentations.
