First, I suggest you download and read
the manual. It is free to download, and is available

| · How
do I play exported Quicktime Movies in Full Screen mode?
You can use a simple Applescript to
solve this problem. Truly, Quicktime is the best choice
if you have to present on a PC. This format preserves
all of the effects that make Keynote so great.
Go to the Quicktime Applescript page here
to download the files. The set of scripts includes a
"Save as Presentation File" droplet that will set the
playback properties so that a movie file will self-present
and close or quit when completed.
Be careful if you use the scaling options, as that
will degrade the quality of your graphics.

| · If
I reduce the opacity of text or an object, how can I get
it to print correctly?
There are two ways to reduce the opacity
of text and objects. If you reduce the opacity in
the Graphic Inspector, objects will print at 100%
opacity regardless of the setting. If you reduce the
opacity of the color fill (in the color picker), then
the object will print as expected. Hopefully, this
issue will be addressed in future versions of Keynote!

| · Can
I dim each bullet as the next bullet appears
You actually have to use multiple
slides. Once you have your first slide completed like
you want it, you duplicate the entire slide. Then
you can change the bullet to gray on the next slide
or slides.
Then you just use a slide transition between them
(I use dissolve).
So you actually have to use slide transitions instead
of the builds that let you have bullets disappear.
The following shows you how this works... it is actually
4 slides.
