We've updated our 30 Million PowerPoint Presentations post entirely, and you can now see screenshots of all our references. What's more awesome than the 30 million figure is the fact that this big figure was first mentioned almost twenty years ago. We also bring you another post on the billion and a half installations of Microsoft Office, as revealed by Satya Nadella. We then look at CleverPDF's quick PDF to PowerPoint conversions at no cost at all. In our series on the Presentation Summit that happens this week, you will find an interview with Sandy Johnson. Mac users of PowerPoint can explore our No Line for Shapes tutorials for both PowerPoint 365 and 2016. Also, make sure you do not miss the quotes, press releases, and templates featured last week.
Stay informed about updated tutorials and happenings related to PowerPoint and presenting.
You get 8 shape types plus lines as part of this Organic Shapes collection. Each of these 8 shape types have 10 variants. So you end up with 80 hand-drawn shape options! Again each of these 80 shapes have 12 brush stroke styles! Plus you get the lines and arrows in 12 brush stroke styles too. Combine all variations to end up with more than 3000 possibilities.

Creating slides is just one part of what you would do as part of your presentation. Delivering those slides will complete the process. In an earlier post, we explored a Checklist for Creating Presentations. In this post, we undertake a similar, planned checklist to deliver your slides. We have compiled a list of activities to do before delivering your slides. Let's call this a presentation delivery checklist.
Make sure that these prerequisites are in place before you deliver your presentation.

Since 2001, we have heard the 30 million figure as the number of PowerPoint presentations created each day. Many years have gone by, and no one has provided a new, updated number—but someone did provide a number that was largely unnoticed as the figure was a passing reference in a keynote that spoke about so much more?

Insert a new shape into a PowerPoint slide, and you'll see that it may be filled with a solid color and has an outline by default (this may differ depending on the Theme applied to your presentation). You can remove the fill of the shape as well as the line. In this tutorial, we'll learn how to remove the line attribute, also known as the outline from a shape so that it only includes a fill without any line. Whatever you do, make sure that you remove either the fill or the line because if you remove both, then your shape will no longer be visible.
Remove the outline from any shape in PowerPoint 2016 for Mac.
