Question about PP2HTML

[Tim]

Hello,
This question is a new post related to one that Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP
answered for me earlier.
I've purchased the PP2HTML add on and hace successfully (sort of) converted
a whole presentation so that my "previous" slide links are now working with
the javascript:history.back() code

My problem now is that all of my text is converted to images and I need
viewers to be able to cut and paste. I searched the FAQ's at PPTools but
didn't see this problem. I'm using .png conversion for my graphics and am
using the basic.htm template. Tried on 2 machines, both WindowsXP, one PC
running Powerpoint 2000, the other Powerpoint 2003 and get the same result.
Any ideas?
Thanks for any help
Tim Long

If you're using the basic template, it's doing what it's supposed to. Basic
just gives you an image of the slide with links converted.

Try it with the Plaintext template to get just text. Then have a look at both
it and basic.htm to get an idea how they work; no reason you can't combine the
two and get both image and text.

If you still have questions or need help combining features of both templates,
I'd be happy to help
