4 tips you should remember when you save you files

When you save your files, it's easy to case problems like losing data or causing incompatible issues. Here are 4 tips for you to avoid these problems.

1 Put on your Thinking Cap when assigning a name to a new file. The file-name is how you can recognize the file later on, so pick a meaningful
name that suggests the file’s contents.


2 Don’t work on your file for hours at a time without saving it. I’ve learned the hard way to save my work every few minutes. After all, I live in
California, so I never know when a rolling blackout will hit my neighbor-hood. Get into the habit of saving every few minutes, especially after making a significant change to a presentation, such as adding a covey of new slides or making a gaggle of complicated formatting changes.


3 If you want to save a copy of the presentation you’re working on using a different filename, choose File➪Save As. Type a new name for the file and then click Save.


4 The File➪Save As command includes a Save As Type option that lets you change the file format your presentation file is saved in. The most important use of this option is to save your file as a PDF or XPS file. A PDF file is a widely used file format that lets any user display the contents of the file whether or not he or she owns a copy of the software used to create the file. PDF was developed and marketed by Adobe. XPS has a similar purpose, but was developed and marketed by Microsoft.

Ok, that's it. Keep these 4 tips in mind and save just the right file.
