Here’s a neat solution, prompted by a question from Marlene of the Business Department. How can we get a PowerPoint displayed on a Promethean board/ActivStudio flipchart. The first option was to open a new flipchart, right click on the flipchart and choose ‘insert’. You can then insert your PowerPoint as text or a file.

However, Padraig, on the ball as ever, spotted the ‘convert to PowerPoint’ option in the ActivStudio toolbox. Just browse to your Power Point file and it will be converted with one PowerPoint slide being converted to one page of the flipchart. You can then annotate on top of the slides and export the completed file when you’re finished.
