How to bring a PowerPoint into Flash

[susanzheng]

How to bring a PowerPoint presentation into Flash? You can't do it directly, but you can save the files in WMF format and import them into Flash. Here's how:

· In PowerPoint, choose File > Save As.

· In the Save as type drop-down list, choose WMF (a vector format) and click Save.

· When asked if you want to save all the slides, say you do (if that's what you want). PowerPoint saves all the slides in a separate folder.

· Open your Flash movie and click the first keyframe where you want to start.

· Choose File > Import. Find the files in the folder and click the first one. They'll be named slide1.wmf, slide2.wmf, and so on. Click Open.

· When Flash asks you if you want to import the entire sequence, click Yes. Flash imports each slide onto consecutive frames.

Because you're importing a vector format, you can edit all the objects and the text in Flash!

Yes, if you convert your powerpoint slides to flash files, and then import the swf file to stage in flash, it's easier. But why you need to import powerpoint to flash?

If you just need a flash slide show from powerpoint, I recommend apps such as PPT2Flash (http://www.sameshow.com/powerpoint-to-flash.html). You'll get better experience to do so.
