How can I import a single slide from another slide show?

[Guest]

Some proprietary slide show creation software has effects and/or templates
that PP does not have. Is there any way that I can copy a particular slide
from another slideshow and paste it into PP? It would be even better if I
could bring along some or all of the effects.

You can import images from those shows, if you have access to the source
files or can capture them from the screen.

Since the other software is not PowerPoint, it is unlikely that PowerPoint
will be able to read it's template codes.

You can not add an effect from another software, but you can capture the
effect as it is applied to their slides in their software and save it as a
movie file, then import the movie file into PowerPoint (very difficult, time
consuming, and usually expensive to get quality results using this method).


Is there something specific that you trying to do? Perhaps an effect you
need for the wedding that we could help you achieve?
