Microsoft Office Package gives a large range of applications suited to office and everyday life. Microsoft Word is ideal for creating and editing text but not suitable for presenting it. So for this purpose, Microsoft Office offers PowerPoint, the presentation software.

PowerPoint slides offer to put text, illustrations, video, sound, and documents imported from other software, for example, Microsoft Word. You can add a Word report to a PowerPoint slide similarly as fast as some other sort of document and in this manner blend two bits of the Microsoft puzzle together.
