☝️Tips:

• Showell offers a build in Presentation Creator that help you to gather the most relevant materials (documents, individual pages, images, videos,...) to create a unique presentation, tailored to your customers!
  
  • You can quickly add, edit or remove files from your custom made presentations
  • You can include content from your My Files
  • Upgrade your presentation to the next level by adding a personal touch using Slide Designer.

• Showell presentations are always up-to-date!
  When you create a presentation in Showell, it uses the original files to showcase the presentation. In other words; It does not copy the original files and so it does not create a stand-alone presentation.
  • This gives the benefit that when the original file is updated within Showell, it will automatically update the corresponding slide(s) in the presentation!
  • When the original file is removed within Showell, it will automatically remove the corresponding slide(s) from the presentation and provide a message that the file or document could not be found.
• If you don't want your presentation to be updated or you want to protected it from files being removed, you can save the presentation as a PDF. By doing this you create a stand-alone presentation.
