    2. Choose Export to Video
    3. In the Create a Video save dialog that comes up you have several options:
      Create Video
      In the first dropdown it will allow you to choose the quality of the video – the above shows it at Full HD. For the Highest Quality (largest file size) choose Ultra HD (4k). For the Lowest Quality (smallest file size) Choose Standard. Which you choose depends on what device you’ll be presenting on. For instance – if you are presenting on a regular computer projector, Standard will likely be good enough. If you are going to play it in a continuous loop on a high definition television, you’ll want to use Full HD or Ultra HD (4k)The second dropdown will allow you to use the timings and narrations if you’ve added those to the presentation. In this case we have not, so leave it at Don’t Use…In seconds spent on each slide the default is 5 seconds. You can play with this setting and export it several times until you feel like you have the proper length between slides. In this case we will leave it at the default.

      Choose Create Video
