Chapter 2 Working with a Keynote Document 27
∏ Tip: You can set up Keynote to use the same theme when you create a new document.
Choose Keynote > Preferences, click General, select “Use theme,” and then choose a
theme. To change the theme, click Choose.
Importing a Slideshow
If you already have a slide presentation that you created in Microsoft PowerPoint or
AppleWorks, you can import it into Keynote and continue to work on it.
Here are ways to import a PowerPoint or an AppleWorks document:
m In Keynote, choose File > Open. In the Open dialog, find the document you want to
import and click Open.
m In the Finder, drag the PowerPoint or AppleWorks document icon to the Keynote
application icon.
Opening an Existing Keynote Document
There are several ways to open a document that was created using Keynote.
Here are ways to open a Keynote document:
m To open a document when you’re working in Keynote, choose File > Open, select the
document, and then click Open.
m To open a document you’ve worked with recently, choose File > Open Recent and
choose the document from the submenu.
m To open a Keynote document from the Finder, double-click the document icon or drag
it to the Keynote application icon.
You can open a Keynote document created using an older version of Keynote (from
iWork ’05 or iWork ’06). To preserve the document to for use with iWork ’05 or
iWork ’06, save it in the same format. See “Saving a Presentation in iWork ’05 or
iWork ’06 Format” on page 186.
If you see a message that a font or file is missing, you can still use the document.
Keynote substitutes fonts for missing fonts. To use missing fonts, quit Keynote and add
the fonts to your Fonts folder (for more information, see Mac Help). To make missing
movies or sound files appear, add them to the document.
Saving Documents
Graphics and chart data are saved within a Keynote document, so they display correctly
if the document is opened on another computer. Fonts, however, are not included as
part of the document. If you transfer a Keynote document to another computer, make
sure the fonts used in the document have been installed in the Fonts folder of that
computer.
