Introduction to Presentation Creator

To cater to the specific needs of individual customers, it may not always be optimal to present existing documents as is. That's where Presentation Creator comes in. It enables you to create customized presentations that perfectly align with your customers' unique requirements.

Showell provides a built-in Presentation Creator tool that allows you to gather the most relevant materials such as documents, individual pages, images, videos, and more, to create a one-of-a-kind presentation tailored to your customers. With this tool, you can easily add, edit, or remove files from your custom-made presentations. You can even include content from your My Files.
