PowerPoint  There are a number of different ways of putting together a presentation with your PC. The most common is using presentation software such as Microsoft’s PowerPoint, which is where we will start our journey of discovery into the world of presentations and presentation software. The main advantage of PowerPoint is that it is very, very easy to use and put together a presentation. What is PowerPoint? As mentioned before, PowerPoint is Microsoft's Presentation application. A PowerPoint presentation is made up of a number of slides. Although it can be standalone, it is usually used as a visual aid for a formal presentation. A PowerPoint presentation is executed as a slideshow and each slide can be displayed on the screen one at a time. This is the traditional way of creating a presentation.

The tools that you use regularly will be on the Home TAB. Your cursor will be placed on the document ready for you to start typing. If your Rulers are not displayed, you can use the View tab to add them. I find the rulers very useful and great for quick page formatting stuff.
