Microsoft PowerPoint 2016 features

Presentation as a video

Export a presentation to MP4 or WMV so it can be viewed without PowerPoint. The video file is easy to share with educational or work materials.

Recorded narration

Record narration and slide timings, then include them in a video presentation. Viewers can follow your explanations at the pace you prepared.

Templates and slide master

Create a shared layout in desktop PowerPoint with the fonts, background, and content placeholders you need. A saved template helps keep future presentations consistent.

Animation of objects

Configure how text or shapes appear, move and disappear, and set effect order and duration. This helps reveal a complex diagram in stages during an explanation.

Tables on slides

Create tables directly in a presentation and fill them with data. This format helps compare options, show a work plan or present several metrics compactly.

Speaker notes

Keep notes for each slide separate from the main content. In desktop Presenter View, the speaker sees the notes while the audience sees the presentation itself.

Export slides to PDF

Save the presentation as a PDF with a fixed layout. The recipient can view the materials without PowerPoint, and you can share a final version for reading.

Links and navigation

Add hyperlinks to useful resources and relevant slides. This helps create a presentation with links to details, sources and additional explanations.
