Good evening,
I hope you are doing well.
I apologize for the translation.
I am currently using PowerPoint in presentation mode on my Mac with VoiceOver, and I am having trouble reading the content of the slides. I am using the installed Office 365 applications.
When I enter presentation mode, I can move through the slides with the space bar and go back to the previous slide, but I can't read the content of the slide I'm on. I've also tried it with Quick Nav disabled.
I need to present in public using presentation mode, so it is important that I can find a way to read the content of the slides.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
I would appreciate any help or advice that you can provide.

Sorry for the lack of…
Sorry for the lack of usefulness of my answer currently. Last time I tried powerpoint on mac I'm sure space, arrow keys or page up/down were working to go to the next slide and escape or backspace to go backward. I'll try this for you as I use both suite on both platform regularely and give an update here, hopefully with a viable solution.
read line by line slides
Thanks! What I want to do is read the content of a slide line by line in presentation mode. This is possible to do in Windows, but I can't manage to do it in macOS.
A question
Is there a particular reason you are doing this in PowerPoint, and not Keynote? Just curious. :-)
Answer about why the use of PowerPoint
Currently at work, PowerPoint is used for presentations, so that's why I use it. I also have an Office 365 license to use the program. That's why I want to use PowerPoint on my Mac if possible, or at least know if there is another way I can do it
Ah, well good luck to you
I personally think you would have an easier time of it with Keynote on Mac, as opposed to Power Point on Mac.
Best of luck. 🙂
