PPT '07: Saving file VERY Slow

A

Hi.

Just switched to PPT '07. File saving a 5mb file took 1.5 minutes.
Seems to save the file twice, based on status bar at bottom of screen.
Is this common? Previous version used to take no longer than 30
seconds. Is the newer version compressing, THEN saving the file? Any
way to decrease save times? I typically have very large files
(10mb-20mb) files.

thanks!

Yes. This happens with .pptx and .ppt files. I will look into changing
default on picture compression. Thanks.

Hi,

also make sure you have a local (not network) printer installed by default.
I've seen Office applications save and then go looking for a printer. Why, I
have no idea.
