Quick Tips for Export to PowerPoint

• PowerPoint presentations link to the videos exported from Morae.
• You can choose the destination directory for the videos but if you move the presentation file, any links to videos may break.
• To move a presentation from one computer to another, in PowerPoint, go to File > Package for CD to create a folder that contains the PPT file and all linked files, including the videos.
• PowerPoint does not automatically save a PPT after creating or adding to it through the export from Manager.
• Manager always creates a new slide in the presentation instead of adding to an existing one. New slides appear directly after the active slide.
• Title clips and graph clips export as images and cannot be modified once in PowerPoint.
• If you have any Text Notes in the video clip properties, they are exported onto the slide as Speaker Notes.

Export Storyboards to PowerPoint

To export one or more Storyboards:

1. Choose File > Export > To PowerPoint.
2. Select the storyboards you want to produce and choose whether to produce a slide for each item (clip) in a storyboard or to produce a single slide that contains a highlight video for each storyboard.
   All Storyboards export into the same PowerPoint presentation.
