MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / June 2006Best way to copy excel to PP
I don't need the data only pictures of either excel charts or numbers. Should I copy paste special as a picture or bitmap or should I copy paste then ungroup and imediatly regroup. Which takes up the least amount of space in my presentation. Please help. Thanks > I don't need the data only pictures of either excel charts or numbers.

It may depend on what you're pasting. PROBABLY Paste/Special Link as Excel object then ungroup/regroup. But it's all there on your computer. Try it both ways in two different files. Which is smaller? There's your answer. ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ >> I don't need the data only pictures of either excel charts or numbers.

Thanks, I did some testing paste spec. as a bitmap seems to be the largest file smallest is paste spec. as a picture. If I bring in charts they hold their color as paste spec. picture, but plain data comes in black no matter what color my headings are. I have to bring in as a link or paste and ungroup then group. Will I mess up my data by doing this? >----------------------------------------- >Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP >PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com >PPTools: www.pptools.com >================================================ > >> I don't need the data only pictures of either excel charts or numbers.

There won't be any data in the PPT file ... but there wouldn't be with the paste as picture either. But none of these methods will do anything to harm or alter the data in your original Excel file. > >----------------------------------------- > >Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP > >PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com > >PPTools: www.pptools.com > >================================================ ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ |
