PowerPoint (sometimes called "PPT") is Microsoft's presentation software. PowerPoint is used by people of all backgrounds, such as students, trainers and business professionals. The software allows you to create photograph albums, select themes, import images and design charts to create a dynamic presentation for your viewers.
