Creating a Summary Slide


A summary slide is a list of the titles, formatted as bullet points, from selected slides in your presentation. You can create a summary slide to use as an agenda slide or as the home page for an online presentation.

To create a summary slide, you select the slides you want to include from Slide Sorter view, and then you click the Summary Slide button on the Slide Sorter toolbar. In front of the first selected slide, PowerPoint creates a new slide with the titles of the selected slides as bullet points.

In this exercise, you will create a summary slide to be used as an agenda slide for a Web-based presentation.
