Free PowerPoint Download

^ home ^

Computer Screen We frequently get asked about where we can find a free download of PowerPoint.

The answer depends upon what you are looking to do - viewing or creating PowerPoint Files.

However you can view and create PowerPoint in programmes that are free.

To view PowerPoint files

If someone has sent you a PowerPoint file you can download a free PowerPoint Viewer from the Microsoft Website.

Simply click on the link

Free PowerPoint 2003 Viewer

and you will be able to download the free viewer.

Please let me know if the link needs to be updated.

To download a free 60 day trial of PowerPoint

Microsoft are offering a free 60 day trial of Microsoft Office which contains Microsoft PowerPoint. This will give you 60 days of free PowerPoint usage. After this period you will have to purchase the software.

According to the Microsoft Website over 1 million people have downloaded a copy of this software.

OpenOffice - Free alternative to PowerPoint

While a full version of PowerPoint could cost you over £300, there is a very good open source alternative. And what is better it is free too. It is part of the Open Office suite and it is called Impress. It features most of the features of PowerPoint and also a few more features such as the ability to export a presentation to a simple Flash file.

To download Open Office Impress click on the link

Open Office Impress

One of the most impressive features about Impress is that it is that it’s user interface is just like PowerPoint. It also allows you to read in PowerPoint files and save them in the new format.

A similar look and feel to PowerPoint

Open Office does not just include the Impress (the PowerPoint alternative) it also includes a fully functioning word processor (like Microsoft Word) and also a fully featured spreadsheet (like Excel).

You can read in PowerPoint files

You can also find more information about Impress at Open Office.

Open Office is one of the web’s best kept secrets. Microsoft have played a huge marketing game in keeping their office product in the public eye - despite this by 2005 over 40 Million copies of Open Office have been downloaded. Being Open Source it attracts a large community of developers and even features in Google’s Summer of Code which hopefully should be developing 3D transitions to Impress - something that as far as I am aware is not possible in PowerPoint.

Google’s free alternative to PowerPoint

As a free online alternive to PowerPoint you can create your presentations using Google’s on-line presentation creation Tool.

Google Docs

docs.google.com already supports on on-line alternative to Microsoft Word and Excel.

The feature set includes

Create and keep presentations in one place on the webcomputer.
Manage, update and share presentations with colleagues by sending them a simple e-mail invitation.
Edit the same presentation together online and in real time on the web.
Present and control slide shows for all viewers over the web, with no special set-up required. Chat with viewers in real time via integrated chat.
Import existing presentations to get started quickly.
Quickly publish presentations to the general public or individuals of their choice.

Comments on: Free PowerPoint Download

thanks for making me aware of the alternatives to office, will give open office a try.

Pretty much what the guy above said - Thanks, i had no idea this was a free alternative!

I think this is absolutely ideal.
Considering how much you have to pay for the microsoft version its like striking gold!

the thing i hate it has trail period omg i hate that so much why cant they give the whole power point with 60 trails OMG

hi yes my name is milagros aguiar, look my computer is a view sonic VA1703wb and it only brings the microsoft office powerpoint viewer 2003 and i need to make a project for math. when i try to open the microsoft office powerpoint viewer 2003 something pops out to save something but i don’t know what to do with that. please tell me or give me the best powerpoint viewer for my computer.

after reading what other people have been saying about open office i quickly downloaded! and i mean wow oh my god! its amazing

If I made a slide with Imress, would it make it so I could show it through Powerpoint Viewer? I just got an assignment due in 3 days on Powerpoint but I don’t have it.

In answer to the recent questions about how to download PowerPoint for free the answer is that you can’t. You can get the PowerPoint viewer for free but the main product is on sale commerically.

You can download OpenOffice for free - or you can use the Google Docs online package for free - but if you want the full PowerPoint package you will have to buy it.

If you follow the link above that will be fine. I just tried it and it did not work automatically. However on the thank you page i was able to clic on the link that read.

“If your download does not start after 30 seconds, click this link: Start download.”

i was able to download it but an open page came up i clicked on open bt it then did not work please help me thanx !!

well i need to ake a powerpoint for school and im not going to pay for it isn’t there a other version of PP not for commercial thinks to download…

I am having difficulty viewing powerpoint files from computers other than the one it was originally created. What is the best way to burn a powerpoint file on disc, that when played on other computers it will be accessible?

I hate how our school projects makes you use powerpoint and my computers doesn’t have it! I’m so glad there is a trial. It’s gonna save me from an F. I just wish this thing was free..

i know on the first one there is a blank page but once ive finished writing on that one how do i go to the next one?

you see the slides on the side of the left of the screen you just click on that and it will bring you a new slide

after your 60 day free trial is up on powerpoint do you have to pay, or can you cancel the free trial before it ends?

I have a school project due soon! In my school all the computers have Microsoft Powerpoint. I downloaded the free version of Open office impress, but i can’t open my Powerpoint at school..I really need some help!..is there any way to open the Impress powerpoint on a computer that has Microsoft powerpoint?..

How do i get a free download of powerpoint 2003?ive got powerpoint 2000 office but i want really good clip art when i am hyperlinking!

Is this like the Office addition because it’s very useful when it comes to overlapping and altering the color of a photo.

I cannot believe that the majority of the people that have posted in this ongoing thread cannot figure out how to download something and I cannot believe that some of the people just can’t go back to the top of the page and click on the link instead of asking for someone to help them or asking someone to give them the link.
The ignorance of some people astonishes me.

so then whats the catch behind all this? there got to be a catch somewhere, you can’t get anything for free these days so y this?

Totally free!
After you downloaded the file, double-click it to install the programm

i like power pont becouse i have too do lots off things on it i love it it is the best ever
