English term or phrase: overhead

Bonjour à tous,

je traduis un manuel destiné à l'animateur d'une formation. Il aura également comme support une présentation PowerPoint de 14 diapositives.
A plusieurs reprises dans le manuel, j'ai:
"show PowerPoint slide/overhead 14/n" où n représente la diapositive n
Au départ, j'ai cru que "overhead" signifiait "transparent" (c'est à dire que je pensais que l'animateur avait à sa disposition soit la présentation PPT, soit les transparents correspondants).
Mais en fait, je me demande si "overhead" ne signifie pas plutôt "présentation" et si je ne dois pas comprendre ma phrase comme "Montrer la diapositive n/14 de la présentation PowerPoint"... Qu'en pensez-vous ?

Merci d'avance pour votre aide !
Audrey
