Can anyone please suggest the best way to share a set of PowerPoint slides
(just for reading) by email with a group that includes some people who do
not have any software for opening ppt files.

An additional requirement is not to make the attachment file size too large.

Thanks,

V

You don't say which software you are using but assuming that it's
PowerPoint 2007 just email them the Presentation along with the
viewer:-

If possible please rate my posting.

Thanks.

Thanks - it's actually PP 2003 but I want to avoid the need for recipients
to have to have to install extra software such as a pp viewer. Sorry I
didn't include either point in my original post.

So I guess possible options would include a way of converting the ppt file
to some other format such as pdf or html...?

The best options, depending on the people and the situation:
* Create a PDF and send that to people. Practically all people have a PDF
reader in their computer.
* Upload the file to Google Documents, docs.google.com. The other people
only need a Web browser.

"Too large" is an expression that may mean very different things to
people...

Many thanks for everyone's suggestions.

There are a couple of ways, but the simplest is just saving it as a pdf and sent it to the. The advantage is that it also works for tablets as well. You can see a little demo of a powerpoint file saved as a PDF and sent to a tablet:
