PowerPoint files can be viewed on a Mac with Microsoft's PowerPoint, Apple's Keynote, Open Office and several PowerPoint viewers.
A PPT file is a Microsoft PowerPoint file. PowerPoint from Microsoft or Impress from LibreOffice would do.
It is the equivalent of Microsoft's 'Powerpoint' program.
Powerpoint is a single program - OpenOffice is a suite of programs !
Microsoft Powerpoint!
Open Office Impress is basically a free version of Microsoft PowerPoint.
Powerpoint is not designed to directly open Excel documents. Powerpoint can import spreadsheets and charts and you can copy data from Excel into Powerpoint. Powerpoint also has a built in feature for creating very simple spreadsheets and charts.
No. If you need an open-source presentation app, try OpenOffice.org Impress.
There is a Microsoft Office version for the Macintosh platform available. It is called Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac. You can also view PowerPoint presentations on Apple's own office productivity suite, iWork. iWork and Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac are both available from the Apple online store.
A blank presentation document
No, you will need to covert it first (on the computer wih 2007):1. Make sure you do not have the PowerPoint open that you wish to convert and that your work is saved.2. Rename the PowerPoint from "---.pptx" to "---.ppt".This should have converted it and should now be viewable on computers without PowerPoint 2007 or the PowerPoint 2007 Viewer.
On iphone? Well, on iphone, you go to the internet and say, Microsoft Powerpoint. Otherwise....
