Working with Images
Inserting Images
Polycom Template Maker supports many image formats not importable into
Microsoft PowerPoint alone. This includes many 32-bit image formats such as
TGA, TIF, and Adobe Photoshop (.PSD) image files. These assets should be
imported into PowerPoint using Template Maker menu options, and not using
the PowerPoint menu options.
To import an image directly onto a slide, do the following:
1 Select the slide in PowerPoint.
NOTE: Template Maker may automatically adjust the Use CG Text setting based on
the operations specified in other dialog boxes.
