Sending a Presentation for Review Using E-Mail
After
you finish making changes to a presentation, you can quickly send it to
another person for review using e-mail. PowerPoint allows you to send
presentations out for review as an attachment, either a presentation,
PDF, or XPS document, using e-mail from within the program so that you
do not have to open your e-mail program. An e-mail program, such as
Microsoft Outlook, needs to be installed on your computer before you
begin. When you send your presentation out for review, reviewers can add
comments and then send it back to you.

Important
To complete the following steps, you need to have an e-mail program installed on your computer and an e-mail account set-up.
An e-mail message opens in Microsoft Outlook with your document
attached. The subject line contains the file name of the document that
you are sending.

Sending a Presentation by Internet Fax
If
you are a member of an online fax service, such as eFax, InterFAX,
MyFax, or Send2Fax, you can use PowerPoint to send and receive faxes
over the Internet directly from within your Microsoft Office program. If
you’re not a member, a Web site can help you sign up. You also need to
have Microsoft Outlook and Word installed to use the fax service and
Outlook must be open to send your fax. If Outlook is not open and you
send the fax, it will be stored in your Outbox and not sent until you
open Outlook again.
