Hello everyone,
I �ve created a powerpoint for my Business English classes, which I wanted to upload here. The problem is that I created it with the latest version of Microsoft Office (pptx) and, after saving as a 1997-2003 Office (ppt) file, the powerpoint becomes much larger in size: originally 123kb to 1,62mb. I does not have any pictures that I could reduce, only text, little animation and I used a new tool: SmartArt. I don �t know if that �s what makes it so heavy when I convert the file to ppt. Does anyone know the reason? Or does anyone have a suggestion on how to reduce the file?
Thank you so much :) |

Try removing the smart Art and �save as � another .ppt and see if the size has reduced considerably. The other thing you should check is if you have selected �Embed True Type Fonts � on the Options menu. This also can take up space - so uncheck it, if you have regular fonts.
I have no experience with transferring from the newer version of office, still on XP I �m afraid. |

Dear Logos,
Thank you so much for your help. I �ve tried but couldn �t freduce size.
What I �ll do is: I �ll upload the presentation in 2 or 3 different files...
