when working with an unknown screen, 1024x768 is safest, but 1280x1024 can look better if the screen will support it.if at all possible, provide your own screen where you know not only the resolution, but also the color fidelity, brightness, etc.give yourself enough time for a trial run on the screen as well as time to enact any corrections or final polishing the translated presentation needs to look the way you want while running on the device.To the best of your ability, I would apply these constraints: An external monitor of either known or unknown dimensions or resolution.Ĭanderson, your situations looks closest to 2, 3 or 4 above.A "kiosk" presentation to display on a specific device, be it an iphone 4s or 5, an iPad 4, iPad 2, a 27" iMac, or a 17" MacBook Pro.
The bulk of my "presentations" fall into this category. An organization I have previously presented to, capable of 1280x1024.Lowest-common-denominator 1024x768 comes to mind. A projector provided by the organization (read as "usually cheap" or abused).When I create a presentation, I try build it (or refine a version of it) for the screen it will display on as well as the device that runs it: To date, all the projectors have been square-format (1024x768 or 1280x1024), not 16x9 or 16x10 as with most current desktop and laptop screens. In almost all situations, the organizations where I present provide the projector. from here on out, we'll call the "presentation device" the screen and the computer or iPad you run the file on the device. In your case, the presentation device will be the external monitor.
The best advice I can give: The presentation device is not always the gadget running the file. I have built a few on iPads (version 1, 3 and 4) as well as iPhone (4/4s/5). Historically, I created most of my Keynote presentations on a variety of desktop and laptop Macs. I don't know if I have achieved "pixel-to-pixel" fidelity between my devices, but I strive to build "to the presentation device" to minimize the amount of post-transfer repairing required. As someone who gives as many as 40 or 50 presentations annually, this is a conundrum I seriously contemplate with every Keynote file I create.
