Will Power Point look good on TV?

PowerPoint slides may not look as good on TV as it does on a computer monitor. The reason is because the nature of the two systems is very different. However if a few simple steps are taken, computer images can reproduce very well on TV.

· Use font styles that are easily readable.

· Using larger size text. Text under size 10 will not be easily read on television.

· Leave extra space around the entire image to allow for some cropping, particularly top and bottom.

· Minimise the use of fine lines, such as in a graph. These can tend to pulsate or jitter on television. The use of thicker lines will minimise this.

· Avoid filling the page with to much information and or detail.

· Use reasonable size photographs. Small photographs may not stand out as well on television.

· Minimise the use of saturated colours as they may not reproduce as well on television.

Interesting post. I never thought to show a powerpoint presentation on a TV. Usually, it ends up on a big screen of some sort.

I've never done used power point on tv but it does sound like the quality might go down if you don't know what you're doing. I've done power point presentations on projection screens but if I ever do one on a tv I'll make sure to take these into account.
