Duplicating selected slides

The difference between duplicating slides and using the copy command is that the duplication method does not send the item into the clipboard memory, whereas the copy command does send the slide to the clipboard, ready to be inserted elsewhere. Follow these steps to learn how to duplicate selected slides:

1. Select a slide on the left-hand side of the presentation to copy.

2. Go to Home | New Slide | Duplicate Selected Slides (at the bottom of the menu). An exact duplicate of the slide will appear:

3. Select a slide to duplicate, then right-click on the slide and choose Duplicate from the shortcut menu. Alternatively, use the Ctrl + D shortcut to duplicate a slide.
