e-mail handouts of slides

G

Guest

I would like to e-mail handouts of a PP presentation with 6 slides per page,
a total of 9 pages. I saved the handouts to a file but I am unable to open
the file after I test e-mail to myself. Any suggestions on how I could do
this?
Thanks,
Dan

How about sending it to MS Word?
Open the PowerPoint file, click File > Send to > MS Word. Choose a page
layout and click ok.
Then, save the document.

If the OP is going to email the resultant DOC file, then native Send To Word
is usually not an option (generates large Word file sizes).

They may benefit from:

1) Printing handouts to PDF

2) Printing handouts to SnagIt

3) Using my SlideIntoWord add-in (different format than 6 ups)
http://billdilworth.mvps.org/SlideIntoWord.htm

All three of these should generate files that are small enough to email
(Under 5 MB)

Or MODI if they happen to have that.

Choose File, Print.
In the Print dialog box, choose the Microsoft Office Document Image printer.
Choose other print options as usual and print.

The recipient would also need MODI or something that can read multi-page
TIFF/Fax files ( I think IrfanView will handle that nicely and for free)

Thanks everyone! I have snagit so I viewed each page of six slides and
snaged/saved as a .GIF in Word. I then made a page break and did the next six
slides, etc... making each a page of the main word doc. Then tested; it works
fine but will take a while to do. Hope I don't have any changes! thanks for
the ideas...

FYI:
You can set SnagIt up to take repeated automatic screen shots. Go to the
timer options and check out what you can do with the "Capture Timer" tab
entries. It lets you schedule the shots for every x number of seconds
minutes or hours....
