(Faithful) Exporting to PDFs
Can I export PowerPoint slides to PDFs, while preserving the fine-grained
"layered appearances" of the elements on each slide? That is, there should be a new PDF page each time an element appears (triggered by a mouse- click). (PDFs also support layered appearances, plus tons of advanced features - you can get fading, animations, movies, etc. - but at the moment, I don't need these features, and layered appearances can be emulated by generating extra PDF pages as described above.) If no native capabilities, any recommendations (preferably free) third- party software to do this? Thanks! |

I saw on some MS Office blog post from 05 that the devs were working hard on such a feature - but I can't seem to find it, at least not in PP. |

As far as I know, Adobe Acrobat 7 or higher is the only software that supports this in PDF. ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ |

I had Acrobat 7 installed already (before installing Office 07). Should
I reinstall it? Steve Rindsberg wrote in : In article , Yang wrote: Can I export PowerPoint slides to PDFs, while preserving the fine-grained "layered appearances" of the elements on each slide?

Acrobat 7 isn't supported as compatible with Office 2007; I'm not certain that 8 is, but I think Adobe's planning an update to it that will make it compatible. It doesn't sound like there's a good way of doing what you're after just yet.
