sending sound with power point e-mail

I send power point e-mails, but the sound never is sent with it

Your file must be a wave file

 

[Sandy Johnson]

Your sound files must be .wav files in order to embed in the PowerPoint.
Cdex will convert your mp3s to a .wav (well, really it adds a header to the
mp3 making PPT think it's a wav).

[Troy Chollar]

Only a .wav formatted audio file can be embedded. All other formats are
linked and the sound file must be sent with the presentation. Here is some
info:

You can also do a search for ".wav" on ThePowerPointBlog for lots of info
and tutorials.

Well, Sound files in wav format larger than 100 KB (i.e. anything but
a short sound effect) and other file formats are linked to PowerPoint
presentation, when you Email the PowerPoint presentation, the linked
music will not be shown.
The differences between embed and link, please view:

Solution:
1. Put the sound files and the PowerPoint presentation in a same
folder.
2. Reinsert the sound file to the PowerPoint presentation.
3. Package the entire folder into one archive file and send it to
others. Do not create self-extracting (SFX) archive since most email
block EXE files by default. WinZip and WinRAR are both recommended to
archive your presentation files for emailing perfectly.

you could view more details about how to email presentation to others
perfectly.

Bob,

If you want to embed the audio file - first go to the "Button" in the upper
left - go to Options - Click Advanced - scroll down - to the Save line - you
will see the line Link sounds with the file size greater than: _____KB-
change this number to a size larger than your largest sound file - click
OK - You will need to reinsert all the audio file(s) then save your PPT. Now
the sound files will be imbedded into your PowerPoint and not linked.
