PCD photo files

Convert them to something PowerPoint understands (like (JPG, PNG, GIF, etc.)
and can embed would be my recommendation.

This takes a few moments using a batch conversion tool (like IrfanView),
will make your life easier, and make the show viewable on computers other
than your own.

If I remember correctly, the PCD filter is not a standard install with
PowerPoint, it has to be selected in a custom install. So my question would
be, once embedded, how is it stored?

If the presentation is distributed, will the recipients need the PCD filter
or does PowerPoint convert it when embedding?

Steve might know about the internal format. My guess is that PowerPoint would
convert it to PNG, if anything. I don't recall doing anything extra to install
filters. Nope, just checked. PCD is not listed as one of the optional filters.
Bottom line, I don't know the answer and don't have a sample PCD file to test
with.

Thank you very much. That worked.
