Prezi Classic files (PEZ) are great for working and storing offline. These files can be used only with Prezi Classic Desktop. Once a prezi file is created, it becomes a separate file that can be imported and exported to any computer using Prezi Classic’s desktop application. Creating a prezi file is also a great way to make an editable backup.
