  • Exporting presentations into different formats

By default, PowerPoint presentations are saved in the .pptx file type. However, there may be times when you need to use another file type, such as a PDF or PowerPoint 97-2003 presentation. It's easy to export your presentation from PowerPoint in a variety of file types:
  • PDF: Saves the presentation as a PDF document instead of a PowerPoint file
  • Video: Saves the presentation as a video
  • Package for CD: Saves the presentation in a folder along with the Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer, a special slide show player anyone can download
  • Handouts: Prints a handout version of your slides
  • Other file type: Saves in other file types, including PNG and PowerPoint 97-2003
