1. How do I generate the HTML required to send my impaticized presentation by e-mail?
Impatica for PowerPoint will automatically generate the basic HTML required to send your impaticized presentation as a streaming e-mail. The e-mail HTML can be found within the "E-mail" tab of the Impatica for PowerPoint software. E-mail HTML is only written if the built-in FTP utility is used from the "Web Server Upload" tab of the software.

E-mail HTML is created while uploading your impaticized presentation to your server. Using the ftp settings you provide in the "Connect to Server" dialog box, unique HTML code is written. This HTML includes all of the elements necessary to ensure proper playback on as many e-mail clients as possible, including a link to a web page that will be displayed if the recipient's e-mail client is not Java enabled. You may also wish to modify or add HTML text and/or graphics to the e-mail message surrounding the area in which the presentation will play.

To do this, open the HTML document that was generated by Impatica for PowerPoint using a text editor (Note Pad, Word Pad and Text Pad are three common programs that may already exist on your PC.) Make the required changes and re-save the document. Depending on which e-mail package you are using to send the e-mail, it might also be possible to edit the HTML and preview the results within the e-mail program itself.

2. How do I generate the required HTML to add my impaticized content to my web site?
Impatica for PowerPoint will automatically generate the basic HTML required to play your impaticized content from within an existing web page. The HTML to use for this purpose is the e-mail HTML produced by Impatica for PowerPoint.

E-mail HTML is created while uploading your impaticized presentation to your server. Using the ftp settings you provide in the "Connect to Server" dialog box, unique HTML code is written. This HTML includes all of the elements necessary to ensure proper playback from within an existing web page.

Using the e-mail HTML, copy the appropriate portions of the HTML and insert them into position within your Web page. In most cases, it should be sufficient to copy only the portion of the HTML that appears between the <applet> and </applet> tags; plus any alignment and/or position tags to properly position the presentation within that page.
