Ppt

By Wendy Russell, About.com

Definition:

Ppt is often used as a short form for the program Microsoft PowerPoint. Users of the program sometimes write that they are creating a PPT presentation rather than write out the word PowerPoint in full.

Ppt is also the file extension used for the program PowerPoint. The .ppt at the end of the filename, such as in mypresentation.ppt indicates to your computer that this file was created using PowerPoint.

Examples: Mary emailed to her colleague that she had just created a PPT presentation for the next sales meeting, instead of using the full name of the program ... PowerPoint.
