Programs such as PowerPoint are a very significant part of our workflows not just because of their vast abilities but also because they can understand content from so many file formats. These include file types that PowerPoint can save and open. When you go and look at the file types that PowerPoint can open, you’ll find that the list of file types is not exactly the same as the ones that you save to. There are several omissions and additions compared to that list.

This is possible, but you will rarely find this secret option documented at all!

You can use many webinar options, but did you know that Microsoft included a basic, free option right inside PowerPoint? This option is known as Present Online.
