• 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 certain animated gif files) are not embedded in PowerPoint presentations; you will need to bring the separate video files with you and submit them along with your presentation file.
• Please name the file as : "Presentation no. (or session name)_presenter name.ppt" (If Windows2007, 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 Mac 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.
