Downloading

ProPresenter: importing the slides

The ProPresenter download has every slide as a picture, the words on a see-through background, and the moving backgrounds as video.

Steps

  1. Open the Download page: on the Slides page, choose Download. Then, on ProPresenter, choose Download for ProPresenter.

  2. In your Downloads folder, double-click the downloaded file (a .zip) to open it. Inside are numbered folders and Start here.

  3. In ProPresenter, choose File > Import > Files and open the folder 1 Slides - import these.

  4. Press Cmd + A (Mac) or Ctrl + A (Windows) to pick every picture, then click Import. Choose to make one presentation. Each picture becomes one slide, in order.

  5. That’s all you need: the slides already have their backgrounds.

  6. Want the background to move? Import the pictures in 2 Words only - for moving backgrounds instead. Drag the video from 3 Moving backgrounds into ProPresenter’s media, set it to loop, play it as the background and show the word slides over it.

Good to know

  • Start here also says which background video goes behind which slides.
  • The words-only pictures work over your own ProPresenter backgrounds too.
  • Moving backgrounds come as smooth 10-second loops.
  • In browsers that can’t make video, moving backgrounds are saved as still pictures. Chrome, Edge or Safari can save them as video.
