CHAPTER 1
Publishing a New Breeze Presentation
After adding audio and synchronized animations to your PowerPoint presentation, you are ready
to publish the presentation to your Macromedia Breeze server for conversion into a multimedia
web presentation.
The steps for publishing a new presentation are as follows:
“Step 1: Accessing the Breeze Publish Wizard” on page 10
Access the Breeze Publish Wizard in
PowerPoint. Open the PowerPoint presentation you want to publish (if the file includes unsaved
changes, you must first save the file), and select Breeze > Publish from the PowerPoint menu. Log
in to Breeze using your user name and password.
“Step 2: Selecting a presentation location” on page 10
Select the folder in the Publish Wizard
on the Breeze server where you want to publish your presentation. The default publish location is
the My Contents folder, your personal folder in the Publish Wizard. You can publish to this
default location or navigate to any other folder for which you have publish permissions.
“Step 3: Setting presentation information” on page 12
Enter information about the
presentation (title and summary) and the speaker (name, title, and company).
“Step 4: Selecting presentation features” on page 13
Select whether to include a presentation
outline, a summary page, or a speaker photo in your presentation. You also set slide timings,
selecting whether to pause playback between slides and animations, and how long to play slides
with no audio.
“Step 6: Setting presentation permissions” on page 17
Set the appropriate permissions for the
presentation. This step applies only to users who have manage permissions for the destination
folder of the presentation. You can make a presentation public so that anyone can view it over the
web, or you can make it private, selecting which Breeze users have permission to view it and
requiring them to log in with a Breeze user name and password.
“Step 7: Uploading a presentation” on page 23
Upload the presentation and audio file to the
Breeze server. After Breeze creates your multimedia web presentation, you receive an e-mail
notification containing the URL for the website where you can view the presentation.
