Greetings from sunny Texas,

I am "attempting" to take a power point presentation and put it into a pdf file.

My problem is that I can do that but i cannot keep the antimation. I tried cutepdf and then I use adobe where I could send it as a pdf but I still do not have the movement.

Have any of you done this successfully and what did you use? I don't mind purchasing something but I want something that works.

Thanks

Richard

Anyone suggested it elswhere to you? Keep us in touch on this!

Greetings,

I have several possibilities. Many suggestions that I have tried do not work.
Oh they will easily enough put the powerpoint in the pdf but no animation.

I just today upgraded to office 2007 and I have been told by several that this will do it.

I have also been told that the free office suite will do it but have not tried it yet.

I did find several pieces of software{from a google search} that ranged frokm free{did not work as needed} to several from a few bucks to almost a 100.00.

Someone suggested an upgrade to Adobe 9 might be able to do it. I do not have much use for office 2007 but hopefully this week end--I can give it a shot and see what happens.

This opens a whole new realm of presentations and I have to admit that one can use the powerpoint--knowing going into the project how gives a brand new look to background and presentation possibilities.

Greetings, while I have looked at word 2007, it has not at least for me right now--still looking at it to take a powerpoint file and maintain the animation--it converts it readily enough but without any motions.

If anyone has a really neat solution to this--let me know

Here is what I managed to get off the web site--

Important Note - Creating a PDF file of your PowerPoint presentation is strictly for the purpose of printing or emailing for review. No animations, transitions or sounds will be activated in a PDF formatted document, and PDF files are not editable (without special additional

That seems to be the big problem right now

Greetings,

I have not tried powerpoint to video then to pdf--has anyone tried this?

Richard

Greetings from sunny Texas,

So far I have been unable to get this to work. This is some slight hope in a program that works with Moodle.

Also has anyone turned ppt's into flash video?

Thanks Richard

As far as I know, you can't do what you're trying to do with PDF. You would need an animated video (flash or other). You may want to look at Camtasia. There is a free older version that works quite nicely.
