If you choose iOS fonts, they won't be displayed properly when you open the presentation on the PC, and you may experience problems with text running out of boxes or wrapping around images erratically. If you do decide to create a presentation on the tablet, be wary of the same fonts issue that afflicts the Microsoft Word app. Any template that you download on the PC/Mac is editable on the iPad, even if it's not one of those preloaded in the app. The iPad app has only 20 presentation templates to choose from, compared to the thousands available to download from the PC and Mac version, and some of those 20 are mundane. If at all possible, avoid creating presentations on the iPad itself. Our top 10 tips will show you how to get the most from PowerPoint on the iPad.

Despite a phalanx of competitors emerging in recent years, PowerPoint remains the industry standard for delivering presentations, and the emergence of the iPad app cements its position in the boardroom.
