Microsoft PowerPoint is an awesome tool to create a presentation. Whenever you need to create a presentation for school or college project, or for office work, you can opt for Microsoft PowerPoint, which comes with beautiful themes & templates. The desktop version costs money. If you do not want to spend money, the PowerPoint web version can do the same job for you free! You may not get as many features as the desktop version provides but you can still get along without them. Let us take a look at some Microsoft PowerPoint Online tips and tricks that will help you create better presentations.

Even though people use PowerPoint to make a presentation visually impressive, sometimes you may not be able to play your presentations. You can, however, show the same presentation, without any animation, to everyone by converting it to PDF or Portable Document Format. Once you have completed your presentation, go to File > Print > Print to PDF. It will take a few moments to convert your presentation and then show you the option to download it.
2. Let others design your Presentation

If you are facing any problem creating a PPT or you want to work with someone to create a special PowerPoint presentation, you can invite that person or share a link to let him/her edit your presentation. Like other Microsoft Office Online tools, there is no need to have a Microsoft account to edit. The person from the other end can download or embed the presentation as well. Make use of the “Share” button visible on the top right section. You would be able to create a link to view or edit the presentation.
3. Insert copy-right free images from Bing
