For a better and more exact PowerPoint presentation, many people choose to embed live web pages (HTML) to their PowerPoint presentation. Of course, you can add the web page screenshot, but it is not satisfactory especially as time goes on. So we come back to live HTML pages, in this article, we will show you how to embed iframe code to insert HTML pages and other web objects to PowerPoint presentation.
An IFrame, also named Inline Frame, is one HTML document embedded inside another HTML document on a website. It can be chosen by the user agent as the focus for printing, viewing its source, and more. Although an iframe looks like an inline image, it can be configured with its own scrollbar independent of the surrounding page's scrollbar.
