Version 1.4.0 – Build 14003
Release of Web Sharing.
iA Presenter 1.3.0
Unsplash Integration
Add high-quality photos in your presentations in one click.
Presenter now lets you search for and insert Unsplash images directly into presentations. Easily find high-quality photos to use as content or backgrounds, without ever leaving the app.
Presenter automatically includes image metadata and adds attributions and captions directly to your slides using Content Block syntax.
Fine-tune your slides using iA Presenter’s image syntax to add alignment, filters, and more!
A New Export Inspector
We’ve redesigned the export options to be more user-friendly and easier to find. The new Inspector lets you tweak exports with greater control.
We’ve also added the ability to export PDFs and images with specific aspect ratios, so you can get the exact output you need without changing your original design.
iA Presenter 1.2
Captions on Images
On the very top of your feature request list was the ability to add a small caption to an image, mostly, so one could easily cite its source.
It has been designed to let the maximum place for your photos and also supports slides with multiple images.
How it works: Write your caption in straight quotes after the file. /file.jpg “This is your caption”
New Aspect Ratios: AKA—iA Presenter for Your Social Networks
We have a growing set of users who are also taking advantage of iA Presenter for creating content on social media.
We added two new aspect ratios, Portrait 4:5 and Square 1:1 to match the format expected by networks like LinkedIn or Instagram.
We also improved the Export as Images feature to export your presentation for your social media networks in a couple of clicks.
How it works: Set the desired slide ratio in settings
