MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / September 2006Creating Powerpoint presentations using MS Word Documents added .
I have been trying to find out how to put an MS Word Document into a PowerPoint Presentation. I have looked at books, websites, study guides and cheatsheet cards, but am not fully understanding what the person was asking me to locate since I use word a lot and am new to the rest of office since I have taught myself how to use some of these programs and had some training classes in them and am an avid computer program book reader to learn new software to better myself in the business world. Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thank you > I have been trying to find out how to put an MS Word Document into a > PowerPoint Presentation.

Wouldn't the first step be to ask the person what they want you to locate? We can't tell you how to get there unless we know where there is. That's the deal here. You supply the questions, we supply the answers. <g> You might ask them what they want to see on the PowerPoint slides. A picture of each page of the word document, one per slide? Selected content from the document? A link they can click on to launch the word doc? ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ I shared your response with the person and as soon as I get more info, I will tell you what we are trying to do so that you can respond better.

She has a form that she created in Word that is 1 page and has several boxes divided different sections of the form (it's a preprinted prescription form). She wants to copy that form into a poster. The poster is created in Powerpoint. It is a single page document that will be printed out as a large poster by Kinko's (you know, the research posters you see lining the walls of the College). I hope that explains it, I never know the right tech lingo. Trust that this helps. > > I shared your response with the person and as soon as I get more info, I will > > tell you what we are trying to do so that you can respond better.

For the output part of the deal: Print posters or other large format output http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00537.htm To get the Word form into PPT in the first place: Set up Windows display properties to the highest possible resolution, even if this means cutting back the color depth. Bring up the form in Word and optionally, fill it in with dummy data. Make it as big as possible on screen. Press Alt+PrintScreen to snap a screenshot of it. Switch to PowerPoint, go to the slide where this needs to appear and press Ctrl+V or choose Edit, Paste (you may also want to experiment with Edit, Paste Special and try the different options). > Trust that this helps. > [quoted text clipped - 35 lines] > > PPTools: www.pptools.com > > ================================================ ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================
