PPT file grown up when Save under... is used

[Thomas Wohlgemuth]

Hello

I had a big PPT with 2 MB.
They contain 32 slides with many pictures. When I open the PPT and the save
with file-save under... the size of the file grown up from 2 MB to more then
14 MB.
What is the reason?

The file was created with 2003 SP2 and ssave again with 2003 SP2.

Hi Thomas,

I'd guess that this isn't an English language version. Is "Save Under" the
command directly below "Save" on the File menu? In English versions, that
would be "Save As". Does this seem correct?

If it does, try it again and look at the "Save as type" (in the box underneath
the file name in the Save dialog box). Make sure it's "Presentation" and NOT
"Powerp9oint 97-2003 & 95 Presentation" or "PowerPoint 95 Presentation"

Also, choose Tools, Options
Click the Save tab
Under "Save PowerPoint files as" make sure it says "PowerPoint Presentation"
