Diese Seite enthält allgemeine technische Hinweise. Sie gehört nicht zur eigentlichen Präsentation und wird im Vorführmodus üblicherweise nicht angezeigt (die Vorführung startet mit Seite 2).

Dieses Dokument ist für Bildschirm- und Leinwand-Präsentationen konzipiert (im Seitenverhältnis 4:3). Es ist nicht gedacht für Ausdrucke: es entpricht nicht dem Erscheinungsbild der CAU für Printmedien, und die Auflösung der eingebundenen Bilder ist (für Druck) zu gering.

Auswahl und Reihenfolge der Folien ist als Vorschlag zu verstehen.Nach eigenem Bedarf können Folien verschoben, gelöscht, verändert oder hinzugefügt werden.

Die Präsentation ist nicht selbstlaufend. Sie sollte von einer vortragenden Person begleitet und erläutert werden.
