The sample presentation was authored in two sessions. The first session created a main master slide, a title master slide, six presentation slides, and associated notes slides for five of the six presentation slides. The second session deleted the presentation slide without an associated notes slide, changed the content on presentation slide 3, and added presentation slide 6 and an associated notes slide.

The preceding figures will be further explained in the sections that follow.
