Displaying information in a presentation mode

A system and method are provided for adapting how links are rendered in a presentation. In one example, the system and method adapt a text-based link in a presentation to a machine scannable code. An example system can identify (702) a text-based link within a slide or frame to be rendered as part of a presentation, the text-based link pointing to a resource external to the presentation. The system can further generate (704) a non-text, machine-readable link corresponding to the text-based link, and insert (706) the non-text, machine-readable link into the slide at a location associated with the text-based link. Then the system can render (708) the non-text, machine-readable link within the slide. A second method is disclosed for generating (808) a digest of links in a presentation that is accessible via a single scannable code. A third method is disclosed for analyzing (904) links to identify links for conversion to scannable codes.
