MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / October 2003merging Powerpoint doc into Word
Is there an easy way to merge a 100+ page powerpoint presentation into a word document? I'm trying to creat instructor notes that are too robust and long for the notes feature in Powerpoint. So I was going to have a smaller version of the Powerpoint screen followed by formated text. Any ideas other than cutting and pasting each screen? Hi Patricia, No, Word doesn't have any way to import a Powerpoint presentation as you envision. And even with copy/paste you want to be careful, as 100+ Powerpoint objects in a Word document could critically impare performance, if not crash the document completely. You'd want to use Paste Special and be sure to paste as pictures (graphics). You might be able to speed things up a tad by recording the Paste Special in a macro, assigned to a keyboard shortcut. Now, if Powerpoint has a way to save each slide as a graphics file (perhaps by converting to HTML?), and would create file names with a number, in the proper order, it should be too big a problem to program a macro in Word that would insert these graphics for you... > Is there an easy way to merge a 100+ page powerpoint > presentation into a word document?

A menu with a list of optional setups/sizes comes up next - just select how you want the notes to look and go from there. I think you were just using the wrong terminology "merge" as opposed to "Send to". Hope this helps. >-----Original Message----- >Is there an easy way to merge a 100+ page powerpoint [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] >Any ideas other than cutting and pasting each screen? >. |
