When importing PowerPoint slides int Proclaim, am I able to customize any of the text or fonts after the import, or does it all have to be done pre-import into Proclaim?
Actually, you can decide how it works.
When you import PowerPoint slides (Ctrl + Shift + P) you'll have the option to either convert the slides to images or transfer control to PowerPoint. If you choose to convert, you'll have the benefit of cloud storage, but will be unable to edit the slides after import. If you transfer control, any changes made in Power Point, even after import, will transfer to Proclaim.
I hope that answers. your question.

OK sounds great. There's currently no way though to edit the slides inside Proclaim after importing them though, correct? It'd be nice to be able to ditch my PowerPoint files completely and do all my edits in Proclaim after bringing them in. :-)
That's correct. Though, I find slide construction easier in Proclaim than PPT. I've ditched it all together, but then I was never a huge fan anyway.
Also, one of our developers just corrected me. This process is Windows only. The Mac version doesn't offer the "Transfer control to PowerPoint" option.

True. I may just re-create my slides in Proclaim. My PowerPoint doesn't look that good, and it'd probably be just easier to manually copy/paste in the text and rebuild in Proclaim for the flexibility.
Is there a way to show a slide line by line like powerpoint does? I am making two or more different slides that have the same content. They just build on each other.
Reveals are not currently supported by Proclaim. Using multiple slides like you describe is the best workaround currently.
Thank you!
