Powerpoint - saving on a memory stick

Cardew

A friend has been sent a Powerpoint presentation.

He has downloaded it to his PC (in My Documents)

He wants to put it on a memory stick to play on a photo frame his children bought him for XMAS.

I believe he has PP 2003.

Is there a easy way to convert PP files to jpeg?

Yes, but apparently the default resolution is poor.

If you follow this guide:

you can increase the resolution, though of course the files will be bigger.

Yes, - Do a Save as (straight to the stick) & choose the appropriate option from the drop down "Save as type" list. Follow the instructions from there

Standard resolution is fine for a digital photo frame/TV.

whats wrong with doing screen shots and if he does not like the borders, then use Mspaint?

There is no 'save as' option either on the complete file or individual pictures(screens) as far as I can see.

It is in the File menu. Second down.

Press esc if you are in a running presentation & the menu is top left of the screen

Sorry I didn't realise you meant to first import the file into PowerPoint and then 'save as'
