embed characters in use only in VBA

[Joan Fernandez]

I have been trying to copy one presentation to other in PPT2003 using
VBA. The problem?? In the new file his size is too big. I like to know
if there is some way of activating the option "embed characters in use
only" from VBA.

Sorry for my bad english, and thanks for your help

That's a program-wide setting, so you can't set it as you save the file,

unfortunately.

You might have to use SendKeys to feed keystrokes to the Tools, Options dialog
box. Nasty ...

I can't do this, because PowerPoint is closed. I do this in VB. Anyway,
thanks for your answer.

Your english is perfect. No worries.

You lie, but thanks.

Just say I'm Joan Fernandez. I changed my name.

It seems I've made a mistake ... the setting for how PowerPoint handles embeddable
files is stored in the presentation; it's NOT a program-level setting.

Apparently PowerPoint doesn't expose any properties to control subsetting;
Word does:

.SaveSubsetFonts

but there's no equivalent in PPT.

Sigh.

Ok. Don't worry. I'll conform what I have now.

Thanks for all
