New in Presenter '09

The world's most popular rapid-authoring tool is now the most powerful, too. Articulate Presenter '09 gives you more power, more control and more flexibility, while remaining fast and easy.

Add professional annotations
Easily add polish to your presentations with professionally-designed annotation shapes and spotlight effects. Choose the perfect annotation effect, including size, animation type, color, and more.

All narration tools in one place
You'll get a lot more done with the new consolidated narration workflow. Since everything's in the same place, you can now spend more time crafting your presentation and less time switching between windows.

Sophisticated branching
Create deeper learning by having learners branch to different slides. Involve learners in realistic scenarios or send them to the content they need the most—you'll find countless ways to make your presentation truly learner-centered.

Single-slide preview
Publish just one or a few slides at a time. You don't have to publish your entire presentation to see your recent changes.

Manage projects easily
Say goodbye to the hassle of maintaining a project folder. Now all of your production files are safely stored in a single .PPTA file. Managing projects can't get much easier.

Sharper images
We've improved how images display, so you'll enjoy crisper images and clearer screenshots.

Easy audio editor
Here's an audio editor you’ll actually enjoy using. It makes it a snap to remove "ums" and "ahs" and synchronize your slides and animations with audio cues.

Add style to your notes
Your slide notes display exactly as you designed them. Text formatting, paragraph breaks, colors, and even font styles all ring true.

Display FLV videos on slides
You can still display FLV video in the Presenter panel—and now you can add FLV video to slides, too. Position and resize the FLV as you like.

Publish to podcast
You’re one click away from an audio podcast of your narration. Choose to output a light-weight podcast player for posting on the Web, or create a single MP3 file for distribution on MP3 players like iPods.
