6 disk set of Harvard Graphics version 2.10

Harvard Graphics was a pioneering, award-winning[citation needed] presentation program developed for DOS and Microsoft Windows by Software Publishing Corporation. Harvard Graphics, Inc. released the first version in 1986 as Harvard Presentation Graphics. It was one of the early presentation consumer application software programs that allowed users to incorporate text, information graphics, and charts into custom slideshow presentations. In the late 1980s Harvard Graphics was the overwhelming leader in presentation graphics software sales, with over 70% market share, according to IDC research figures at the time.

Harvard Graphics gradually lost market share through the 1990s, mostly to Microsoft PowerPoint. In 2001, Serif Incorporated purchased exclusive marketing rights to the product line of Harvard Graphics, Inc., and assumed product support responsibilities.
