How to show images on the digital projector without using presentation software

 

1. Select the images you want to use. Format does not matter, but the size should be rather large than small.

2. Put all the images for one class in a single folder. Number them in the order you would like to show them. Use 01, 02 if showing more than 9.

3. Put your folder on a Zip disc.

4. On the PowerBook, launch GraphicConverter.

5. Go to File -- Slideshow (or Apple-D)

6. Select the folder you have made with that day's images.

7. Click once to advance to the next slide.

8. The controls resemble those on a VCR -- you can go forward or backward, pause, stop, or list the numbers and go to individual images.

 

9. To stop the slide show, click on the square button.
