Hello

When I attempted to create a .pps slideshow

(I have PowerPoint of Office 2000 Premium - under Vista )

using a pdf file with simple "cut and paste"

of photos and paragraph, 30 frames totally,

I obtained a 49 MB (.pps) file against a 2,4 MB (.pdf) file.

I added only a midi file (16 KB) and the same background for all the frames.

What can happen ?

There is a way to analyse the content of the new pps ?

Thank you

turigen

Are you copy/ pasting from Acrobat Reader?
Did you use the snapshot tool?

Depending on how you added the information from the PDF, you got either an OLE
object or a picture. Depending on the original contents of the PDF, a picture
could very easily involve a lot more data than the PDF itself.

Try ungrouping whatever you've copy/pasted from the PDF. If it's an ole
object, that should leave you with just a picture, which'll give you a smaller
PPT/PPS file.

If it won't allow you to ungroup the copy/pasted shape, we'll have to try
something else.
