This document provides etiquette tips for using PowerPoint presentations effectively. It recommends using pleasing colors with good contrast, common fonts that will display properly on other computers, and large readable font sizes. Slides should be attractive, professional, and avoid distractions like too many transitions, animations, sound effects or clutter. Text animations like "crawl" or "swivel" should be avoided in favor of simple styles like "stretch across" or "appear". Less is more with visual effects - they should be used sparingly and consistently to emphasize key points without overwhelming the audience. Presentations should be pleasing, interesting and previewed for the intended viewing equipment while considering the audience experience.
