Can I turn Publisher Publications into Power Point Presentations?

[Noe]

I have a Publisher Publication I'd like to turn into a presentation. Asides
from doing it page by page is there any other way?
Thanks!

Hire someone else to do it page-by-page?



Seriously, I don't know of any way to easily convert a Publisher
presentation to PPT. You could try saving the Publisher file as HTML and
opening that in PPT and then saving as PPT -- but I have doubts as to
whether that would really work well. Might be worth a try, though.

You could save your Publisher Publication to a PDF file, and then convert
that to PowerPoint

Oh, I'm so glad you knew about that. I had no idea!

If you can't find a way to do it, consider this: a good presentation is
just about presenting ideas one page a time on full-screen mode. PDF is a
very suitable format for that.

Most people don't know that Adobe Reader switches to full-screen when you
press Ctrl+L. That turns it into a perfect presenter's tool... or at least
makes conversion to PPT often unnecessary. This is good news to people who
maintain materials that by their nature suit Publisher or Word better than
PPT, but from which they need to setup a presentation fast.

And of course with PDF you also get more robust layout and fonts that
remain the same no matter what.
