Hi can anybody help me with this. My professor posts her presentations in
..doc format.( you can download an example from this web adress
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=03RGZ60U)

But i like to print it out in power point slides format (one slide per page
so that i can see the pictures clearly.) can somebody please tell me how to
change the .doc document into power point slides format.

thank you very much
joe

Dum de dum de dum dum...

* 1 minute later... *

Ok, the file is now downloading, but...

Transfer rate: 12.3 KB/Sec ???

Geez, I'm on cable and it is downloading very slow.
I could be downloading a 70 MB file (from a faster server) at the same it takes to download this 19.3 MB file.
Downloaded: 19.3 in 26 min 40 sec


So you see, that site isn't the best to upload to or even download from.



Anywho...

If you have both Microsoft Word AND Microsoft PowerPoint, you can create a Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation
from a Microsoft Word outline 2 ways. The article (which I have linked to below) describes this process.

Create a PowerPoint presentation from a Word outline
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/as...901741033.aspx



By the way, I look at the Microsoft Word Document and it appears not to be formatted correctly to be opened
correctly in Microsoft PowerPoint.

It didn't import properly in Microsoft PowerPoint.

Looks like you'll need to do some work on the Microsoft Word Document or do a lot of coping and pasting. It
isn't going to be easy, that I can say for sure.

I can't get 'New' question to work. Every other day it's something else. If I
take over a minute to write this post here, I get some kind idiotic 'this
page is unavailable right now' error (time out?) and all my work disappears.
When will it end? That's why I have to go via the 'Reply' route to this
outdated thread - the only one which comes close to my problem.

Is there any way to 'convert', import', 'insert' or 'copy', etc., a
pwerpoint slide or file or whatever you call it into Word so I can process it
in there. I don't understand PP and no time now to learn it. Can't get it to
work right in 'portrait' view (need to convert from Landscape view); nor can
I get it to work right with header/footer
(put page no's at bottom) - tho I see them in their 'Notes' view. Won't
print out.

Any quick solutions? I need to urgently process a big .ppt file somebody
sent me.

Thanks in advance,

It's not clear what you mean by "process" but if you need to convert the PPT
content to a Word doc, try opening in PPT and using the Send to Word feature.

Try it on a small presentation first so you can experiment with the different
options w/o wasting huge amounts of time.

Thank you very much Mr. Rindsberg for that advice. Will give it a go shortly
and
let you know.

By 'process' I meant changing a lot of text data in the file and then
printing it out
on A4 along w/ the images. This means I have to get 2 slides per single,
printed
page - one part is the text, the other the image.

I can only do something like that in Word. Not a clue at this time (yet)
about doing
it in PowerPoint. So I'm just copying, pasting and re-adjusting things as
required in Word - but this is going to take me a very long time.

Thank you,

OK. Before you wear out your mouse finger, try doing this with Notes pages.

Choose File, Page Setup and change the "Notes, handouts & outline" orientation
to Landscape, then click OK

Choose View, Master, Notes Master.
Drag and resize the slide and text placeholders to match the layout you have in
mind.

Choose View, Notes and verify that it looks like you want it to.

Print.

Thanx for that extra bit of info. Should come in very handy. Your first bit
of advice
works just fine too. Produces some really huuuuge Word files, though (lots
of images for a training course).

Looks like the 'text' portions need to be edited in ppt first (which is easy
enough)
as they wind up as (for all intents and purposes) difficult to non-editable
'pictures'
in Word. But that's OK. Should be a mini-expert on ppt by end next week!

Greatly appreciate,

Have a look here for help with that:

If you get stuck and NEED to edit them in Word, they're probably WMF/EMFs and
can be ungrouped; but editing will be *very* tedious. As you say, best to do
it in PPT.

Also experiment with the Link option. You may be able to set things up such
that when you edit the PPT, the linked Word version "follows along".


But that's OK. Should be a mini-expert on ppt by end next week!
