Online Presentations: Creating a Web Presentation
A PowerPoint web presentation is a presentation that is converted to a web page (i.e., an HTML document) and graphic files. The web page and graphic files can then be copied to a web server and accessed as a regular web page.
After you have created a presentation in PowerPoint, you have the option of saving it as a web page. By saving the presentation as a web page, you may copy it to a web server for online viewing. Web presentations are opened in internet browsers, so you do not need PowerPoint installed on your computer to view a web presentation.
