Spelling

One very important step in working with PowerPoint is to make sure you perform a spell check on your presentation. You should also proofread it as well. It can be quite embarrassing to find mistakes while you are presenting. To run a spell check follow these steps: With your presentation open click on the spelling icon from the standard toolbar. You can also go to Tools Spelling or hit F7. A spell check will be run on your show. When typing in PowerPoint if you get a red squiggly line under your text that is an indication that your word may be incorrectly spelled. You can right click on the word and choose one of the words listed or choose ignore if the word was spelled correctly.
