MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / March 2008Downloading large PP 2007 htm and pdf file
If you go to http://gdpkeyboarding.com/GDP_Software.htm and try to download "Introduction to GDP 10" by right-clicking the pdf link, saving the file, opening PP 2007 and then browsing to and opening the downloaded pdf file, you see this message: "The outline is too long to read in its entirety." When you click OK, garbage opens up in PP07. The same file has been saved as an htm file, which opens fine in the browser and the pdf opens fine in the browser. However, neither one opens in PowerPoint correctly. What is the problem and how can it be resolved so that visitors can download these pdfs and open them in PowerPoint? I realize that the htm verrsion would have issues becuase supporting folders would also need to be downloaded, but the pdf file should open fine. All help greatly appreciated.

Sorry, but it won't work. PDFs won't open in PowerPoint. Users would need Acrobat Reader or the like. ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ Thanks, Steve. Is there a way to download the htm file from that page and also get the supporting folders copied? > > If you go to http://gdpkeyboarding.com/GDP_Software.htm and try to download > > "Introduction to GDP 10" by right-clicking the pdf link, saving the file, [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > PPTools: www.pptools.com > ================================================ > Thanks, Steve.

You can usually just open it in PPT. But what exactly are you trying to accomplish, and can you post a link to the file in question? > > > If you go to http://gdpkeyboarding.com/GDP_Software.htm and try to download > > > "Introduction to GDP 10" by right-clicking the pdf link, saving the file, [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > > PPTools: www.pptools.com > > ================================================ ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================
