STORY: From the Makers of SnagIt - Camtasia Studio PowerPoint Add-in

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Hi Todd," Dan the technical writer said. "What'd you think of that
training meeting?"

"Oh - I was out. I missed it," Todd said. "I'm really disappointed."

"Never fear!" Dan replied. "For it was recorded with the all-new Camtasia
Studio PowerPoint add-in!"

"What's that?" Todd asked.

"Camtasia Studio is now a part of the PowerPoint toolbar. That means you
can easily record any presentation - including your voice, animation,
transitions - and save it in any of the popular multimedia formats. Post
it on a Web site, burn it on a CD - anyone, anywhere can watch the video,"
Dan said.

Todd asked, "So, watching the video would be just like I was there in the
room?"

"Well," Dan explained, "Camtasia Studio places a Table of Contents
alongside the video, so you can navigate to the parts of the video you
want to see - and skip the parts you don't need to see."

He winked. "So actually, it's even better."
