Hi all!
How can one convert a ppt file to a pdf one keeping all the animations, for example pop up figures, that can be in a normal ppt file?
I know that the number of converted slides will grow, but i care more to the animations that to the size of the file .....

Thanks everybody ...

Hi,

PDF is more of a printing file than anything. It's hard to keep
animations when printing something.

Why are you trying to use PDF in the first place?

You'd have to convert each slide to a series of slides, each of which reveals one
more animation step than the last. Then you could make PDF; you might have to
manually re-create all the links in the PDF as well if you're using any.

Most of this could be automated one way or another on the PC or in Mac PPT 2004 but
since 2008 no longer supports VBA ... your mousefinger's gonna be kinda sore. <g>
