MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / September 2006Converting PowerPoint Slides into Graphic Files
Can anyone explain why PowerPoint Apple version 2003 converts ppt. slides into graphic files (jpg, gif or png) of much better quality than say…PC versions 2002 and XP are able to do? Is this the result of an internal setting that controls the compression and image size? Do you know of any PC PowerPoint versions that do a good job of conversions? I need to convert batches of slides so I'm not interested in a single screen capture method. Its simple to do this in PowerPoint but the quality needs to be excellent for my purposes. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;827745&Product=ppt2003  SignatureDid that answer the question / help? _____________________________ John Wilson Microsoft Certified Office Specialist http://www.technologytrish.co.uk/ppttipshome.html > Can anyone explain why PowerPoint Apple version 2003 converts ppt. slides into graphic files (jpg, gif or png) of much better quality than say…PC versions 2002 and XP are able to do?

Minor nits/points of order: 2002 and XP are the same thing, and chew on the edges of text before exporting it to images. 2003 is a Windows version of PowerPoint (and it also tends to output questionable image files where text is concerned). 2000 does a much better job than either. But rather than mess with multiple versions, try exporting to PNG at much higher resolution that you really need, then use an image editing program to batch resample down to final resolution. Even 2002/2003's exports can be very good this way. If you don't already have a favorite image editing app, try www.irfanview.com .. free, excellent.
