All speakers are requested to come to the Speaker Preparation Desk at least 30 minutes in advance of their presentations to verify if the data functions properly on the equipment provided.
Speakers will use PowerPoint presentations. All presentations will be loaded onto a server (At the Speaker Preparation Desk) and distributed to an appropriate session room at an appropriate time via a LAN.

PowerPoint Presenters

Bring your presentation on a Windows readable USB flash Drive or CD-ROM. In case you use animation, you should bring your own laptop and make sure that the data is applicable to Windows Media Player.
Make sure that you close or “finalize” your presentation file when create a CD. If you omit this step, you cannot access the CD from any other computer.
Only the standard fonts (e.g., Times Roman, Helvetica, Arial, Times New Roman) are accepted for your presentation file, and unusual fonts may not be displayed properly on the computers in session rooms.
Include any external files utilized e.g. movie files in the same folder as your presentation. Copy the entire folder to the USB flash Drive or CD-ROM.
Video clips (other than cer tain animated gif files) are not embedded in PowerPoint presentations; you will need to bring the separate video files (WMV type is recommended) with you and submit them along with your presentation file.
Please name the file as : “Program no. (or session name)_presenter name.ppt (If Windows2010/2007, pptx)”
In order to avoid virus infection, please scan your data with updated anti-virus software beforehand.
Users of Macintosh Computers:
You should bring your own Macintosh since there would be technical issues that can arise when PowerPoint files created on a Macintosh are run on a Windows PC.

Laptops

Speakers using their own laptops MUST HAVE a VGA D-sub 15pin female output. Special video output cable is required for some laptops to use the D-sub 15pin to connect to external monitors and data projectors. Please note that we are not equipped with that special cable and you must bring it in case it is necessary. The laptop output resolution should be no more than XGA (1024 x 768). The higher resolutions than the native resolution (1024 x 768) would possibly lose some information or not project by forcing the data projector into a compression mode.

VGA Cable (Sample)

Please name the file as: “Program no. (or session name)_presenter name.ppt (If Windows2010/2007, pptx)” and save it to the desktop or create a shortcut on the desktop.
You should have your data backed up in case of computer trouble.
Please turn off the screen-saver or energy saving mode beforehand.
