    I know there is a way to save a powerpoint presentation that can be viewed by someone without a powerpoint app but don't remember how

    It's been long time but I think I saved the .pps file I looked at in PP, to another single file that I was able to send via email to someone able to view it without the MS Office PP app.

    Is my memory misleading me?? :confused:

    Difficult for me to say or test as I have PowerPoint on all my computers - a .pps file just runs, a .ppt opens in PowerPoint.

    What I am sure of is that Package for CD - can save to folder as well, includes PowerPoint Viewer which is necessary to view PowerPoint presentations on a computer which does not have PowerPoint installed. Snag is it doubles the show size.
