Working with Documents

There are several ways to add documents to ProPresenter, but this covers the most basic way, which is manually creating a new document. You can also add items through SongSelect, Planning Center, Bibles, Social Media, or one of the built-in sync features. You can also import your previous libraries from an earlier version of ProPresenter if you have upgraded. All of those methods are covered in their more specific sections of the user manual.

To create a new document in ProPresenter, click on File and select New. You can also use the keyboard shortcut which is Command-N on a Mac or Control-N on a PC. There is also a shortcut on the toolbar to create a new document.

When you do this, you will see this window. Creating a new file will make a new file with a single blank slide. Give the file a name, select the Template, Category, and Size of the document. The Template will always be the last one used here and the size will default to match your output screen size. You can change any of these options as needed.

When you click New it will add the document to your Library and you can begin editing to add slides or media to the file.
