Note – I have had some experiences in the past when I pasted the text it came in as an embedded graphic. If you want to keep the formatting from PowerPoint, edit your clipboard handling preferences and choose ?all information? when pasting text from other applications. I end up just copy and pasting the text over. There is no easy way to bring all of the text over. This option will only grab bitmap graphics – therefore, it may not work if your file has a lot of vector data. This will quickly export all of the images out of the PDF into a specified folder. Inside Acrobat Professional, go to the advanced menu > document processing > export all images. Using Acrobat Professional you can quickly export all of your bitmap graphics. If your PowerPoint document does not contain any vector images, you do have another option. I recommend PDF for vector and JPG for bitmaps. Right click on the graphic and choose “save as picture.” You can choose from PNG, JPG, PDF, GIF & BMP. The problem, is that you can’t just copy the whole slide because it will paste into InDesign as one large embedded image.Ī better idea is to save out each graphic element one at a time from PowerPoint. If you want each slide to be editable, manually bringing everything over is your only option. More after the jump! Continue reading below↓įree and Premium members see fewer ads!
