Why would anyone want to duplicate slides? There are many reasons to do so. For example, you may want to create another slide that is similar to what you already have. Or you may need to use the same slide twice. Or perhaps create a slightly different table or chart than what you already have on an existing slide. Duplicating and editing slides is easier than redoing it from scratch. Whatever your reasons may be, it is easy to duplicate slides in both the Slides Pane and Slide Sorter View.

It’s been observed that most of the time, users may remove an animation and apply another one rather than changing one animation into another. This may be because in PowerPoint there is no particular option within the interface that changes the animation. But there is still a very easy one-click operation to change an existing animation to another one, as you will learn in the following tutorials.
To learn more, choose your version of PowerPoint. If we do not have a tutorial for your version of PowerPoint, explore the version closest to the one you use.

Saving a PowerPoint presentation as a PDF has its pros and cons. The biggest advantage is that recipients won’t be able to edit, and you can embed fonts easily. An even better advantage is that you may use PDFs as a substitute for printing drafts or finished slides, thus saving so much paper. Disadvantages include that you cannot be entirely multimedia-friendly. Whatever your thoughts may be, PowerPoint makes it very easy to create PDFs.
To learn more, choose your version of PowerPoint. If we do not have a tutorial for your version of PowerPoint, explore the version closest to the one you use.
