PPT 2003 => html

[Steve P]

I saved my presentation in normal html format and a couple slides genereated
500K xml files. Is this something embedded in my presenation or did
powerpoint generate it in the conversion.

If it's in my presentation, I'd like to see what it does and then probably
delete it.

I've already converted the large png & wmz files to jpgs so the only big
files remaining are the two xml files (slide0034.xml, 430K & slide0025.xml,
590K) & the oledata.mso (2,430K) file. There are about four other xml files
but they are small.

Hi,

Along the liens of what Steve said...

It could be how the images were inserted. If you paste an image in out of
another program, including something like mspaint, it creates an ole
reference to the original program. That could result in a large oledata.mso.
Right click on images and see if you get a menu item for a program. Or
graphs, etc.

Please tell us your PowerPoint version,

anything else relevant.

Interesting...
I right-clicked on several images and got a standard menu with options like
format object; save as picture, etc.
What's the best wat to determine if a particular image is increasing the
size of the oledata.mso file.
I'm using PPT 2003 and don't know if I have vba enabled.

thanks
