Reusing your existing slides can be a great help: first you need not recreate stuff you already have and secondly you are saving so much time that you can use more effectively to practice your presentation!

Adobe Presenter: Import Quiz

Quizzes that you create in Adobe Presenter are not saved as separate files — in fact they are saved as part of the container PowerPoint file within which they were created. And that’s actually a huge advantage, especially if you want to move your quizzes from one eLearning project to another — or even when you want to import an existing quiz to use as a template for another quiz. Essentially, all you need is to move, copy, or duplicate your original PowerPoint files!
