What You Can Do Using PC Free 4
What You Can Do Using PC Free
You can use PC Free to directly project files stored on USB storage
devices and digital cameras that are connected to the projector.
PC Free Examples
You can use PC Free to project individual movie or image files or to
continuously project slide shows using more than one file.
If you convert your PowerPoint file into a file format that can be
projected by PC Free and store the file on a USB storage device, you can
project a PowerPoint slide show without connecting a computer.
s"Projecting Files Created with PowerPoint" p.11
The supplied EasyMP Slide Converter application software makes it easy
