These sites provide great choices if PowerPoint 365’s options are not enough, or if you are using an older version of PowerPoint that does not include the Icons feature. We next feature Itai Amoza of Storydoc, who shares more info about this new site that helps businesses tell their stories in an exciting, engaging way—the way.
PowerPoint 365 for Windows users can learn how to enable or disable the Office Background option, which essentially is a patterned strip on the top-right of the PowerPoint interface. We also bring you quotes, press releases, and templates from the last few days.
