Known Issues

Editing a prezi
- Some prezi themes does not include all accented characters. The first two themes under the "colors" menu bubble are designed to accept all European typing.
- Currently it is not possible to edit languages that have right-to-left scripts in Prezi
- When uploading images, it could cause some trouble if the JPEG is a progressive type (the one that comes in refining scans), is in CMYK color mode, or is a JPEG2000 type. Any other non-standard extensions can lead to malfunction, e.g. some photo management softwares write non-standard EXIF or IPTC tags in the image file.
- SWF files created by Adobe Illustrator can only be added to the end of the path.
- URLs with other than HTTP protocol (eg. https://, ftp://, mailto:, etc.) don't get converted to links in the editor.
- For HTTP protocol links to become active, you need to save and refresh your prezi.
Playback of your prezi
- If you experience jerky motion while transitioning from one state to the next viewing your prezi, it may be caused by your prezi having very large size differences between the smallest objects and the over-all size of the prezi. Notice how zooming out completely, is not as smoothly animated as zooming/panning within the prezi? To learn more about this problem, read https://prezi.com/learn/zoomed-away-prezi (section "Understanding the problem"). To solve it, please make the smallest objects larger (or the largest ones smaller) and group the content closer together. Until the zooming-out animation is smooth again.
- A downloaded portable prezi crashes on Mac OS X using a non-English input language, if you hit any key together with the Ctrl key.
Prezi Desktop release notes and limitations
- Creating a prezi in the Prezi Desktop Editor with images that are not supported in the online editor may be possible. If you upload such a prezi from Prezi Desktop, these images will not be visible online (a download bubble may show up instead).
- Creating a prezi with PreziDesktop which is bigger (in megabytes) than your available online storage space is possible. However you will not be able to upload these prezis to your online account.
