Guidelines for the preparation of a PowerPoint presentation
Presentations should be a clear representation of the material accepted by the programme committee. Presenters should endeavour to communicate their work with coherence and clarity and be aware of the broad spectrum of delegate languages. Do not stifle your presentation with special effects and full paragraphs of text. Rehearse your presentation and take note of its duration. Please ensure that you save your presentation as a PowerPoint file format, this is the only file format that can be uploaded.

File Size: 25MB maximum. Save as a .ppt file.
Layout and Style: Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 slides (in landscape format only) should be used.
Fonts: Standard fonts only, e.g. Times New Roman & Arial.
Graphics: Size should be minimal (80 KB – 200 KB). JPEG format only.
Movie Clips: Only if essential and small
Audio: Only if essential and small
Copies: Please note that you need to test your files on CD ROM or USB memory stick (presentations are to be delivered using Microsoft PowerPoint) in the conference Speakers Preparation Room before your presentation.
At the Conference
You should bring your PowerPoint file (as a .ppt file) on a CD-ROM or USB memory stick. The only equipment permitted to be used will be that provided by the event’s official audiovisual company. Presenters may not use their own equipment, this includes computers. Speakers are to meet with the session chair and audiovisual technician at the entrance to the session room 20 MINUTES BEFORE the session commences. At this time speakers can familiarise themselves with the room’s equipment.
