Presenter Options, Including Universal Access Features

The “speaker notes” function in PowerPoint is used as a universal access feature. The speaker notes contain text descriptions of the

graphics, because it was not feasible to do this with PowerPoint’s ALT text function to provide access for people with disabilities, including vision and cognitive impairments.

The notes can also be used to prepare a presenter for delivering the slides.

Where graphics repeat, the descriptions for graphics only describe what has changed from the previous slide.

Unfortunately, current versions of the free PowerPoint Viewer do not support “speaker notes.”

bring up the menu, and then select “speaker notes” On a Mac, using Ctrl + Click on the slide and select “speakers

notes” from the menu. The notes can also be seen as a part of the “Normal” view or directly

by using the “Notes Page” view. When in “Normal” view, F6 can be used to switch between the slide,

notes, and outline panes respectively.
