Compression of Presentations

[Heather]

Does anyone out there know of any good programs that you can run to
help compress the filesize of a powerpoint presentation?

 

[Austin Myers]

PPT does a fairly good job of compressing the file already, third party
comperssion (zip, rar, etc) will not gain you much.

some of our presentations are HUGE and the built in compression is not
helping much - I know there are some other compression programs out
there that are designed for powerpoint only - anyone use any of those?

There was one called PointLess from Impact Labs, which was bought by Galaxy
Technology, and I can't seem to find any more info than that.

PPT's own compression option:
