Important
Information for the Lecturers
1. PowerPoint
presentations
Session rooms as well as some of the workshop rooms are equipped with a
data/video projector (XGA, native resolution1024 x 768) and a desktop PC
computer.
The PCs have Windows 2000, including PowerPoint 2002 (within
Office XP) and WinZip - compression utility, installed. PowerPoint 2002 is
compatible with all previous versions of PowerPoint.
- Graphics and text in the presentation must be of adequate size to be
clearly visible on the projected computer image from the back row of the
auditorium. As a rule of thumb, if you can read the text at a distance of
three metres on a 17" computer monitor it will be readable by the
audience in a normal size auditorium.
- A simple sans serif font, such as Helvetica or Arial, works best for
slides. To ensure readability use large fonts (28 point Bold in titles;
the lowest level of subtopic should be no smaller than 24 point)
- Do not use ALL CAPITALS; bold text is preferable to underlined text
- Use text colour with a high contrast to the background image, and
use plain single-colour backgrounds. Dark blue or black are the best
background colours.
- Avoid using red and green next to each other. Avoid using bright,
vibrant colours (red, gold, bright blue or bright green as background
colours.
Presentation should be saved under the name of the speaker and the date
of the presentation (not under Tampere / Finland or under the name of the
conference).
Presentations should be sent in advance via e-mail (mailto:send.presentation@tampere-talo.fi) at the latest two business days
before the opening day of the conference. The size of the attachment file
should be less than 10 megabytes. Files bigger than10 megabytes can be
sent by post.
In case you are not able to send the presentation via e-mail by the
deadline, you can bring it with you to the conference on a CD-R / RW,
floppy disk or zip cartridge. In this case, please contact the auditorium
technicians / conference staff before the beginning of your session.
- After we have received your presentation we will immediately check
the compatibility of the presentation with our equipment and we will send
you a confirmation at the latest the next business day.
- The technicians will install your presentation on the PC of the
auditorium before the session.
- Presentation will be loaded by the conference staff and it will be
ready to be projected on the screen when you arrive on stage.
- All local copies of your presentation will be destroyed after the
presentation.
Speakers presenting from their own personal laptops must have their
laptop connected with the presentation equipment provided on the stage
immediately prior to the start of their session. The conference staff
connects the laptop with a 15-pin D plug into the dataprojector´s
interface/switcher. Speakers are requested to ensure that they have a
suitable connector in their laptop. Speakers should also be familiar with
the keystrokes that activate the external display connector. Screen and/or
power saving functions should be de-activated.
It is highly recommended, that you bring a backup copy of your
presentation on a CD / zip / floppy disk even if you are going to use your
own personal laptop in your presentation.
2. Video
The video tape players of the auditoriums support European (PAL) and US
(NTSC) VHS formats. PAL S-VHS is also supported. Region free DVD-player is
available on request.
3. 35 mm slide projection
The auditoriums as well as most of the workshop rooms are equipped with
Kodak Carousel slide projectors with 80-slide trays. Double projection is
available only on request.
Slide preview room is located in the lobby (Service Booth 3). Slide
preview room staff will deliver the slide tray to the projectionist after
you have arranged the slides in the tray. The projectionist will control
the projector during the presentation. After your presentation you may
collect your slides from the slide preview room.
- As a rule-of-thumb, if you can read a 35-mm slide when held at arm's
length in front of you, it will be readable by the audience in a
normal-size room. Follow the guidelines for PowerPoint-slides.
- Avoid cardboard mounts. Cardboard mounts or thin plastic glassless
mounts will cause the projector to jam
- Slides mounted without glass can be damaged in the heat of the high
power projectors. If not glass-mounted, slides tend to warp, changing the
focus point as they heat
- Do not affix tape of any kind to your slides because this will cause
the projector to jam.
4. Overhead projection
The auditoriums and workshop roomes are equipped with overhead
projectors. Blank OHP transparencies and pens are available. Suggested
fonts for overhead transparencies are
- title: 36 Points Helvetica Bold
- text: 24 Points Helvetica regular
