Sending single PP slides to a Word document

[Bluenose]

I am writing a document and thought it would be helpful to show a miniature
of the PowerPoint slides associated with the text, as they come up in the
discussion. The only option I've found on PP so far is the "send to" option
in the File menu, but that seems to send only the whole presentation with
notes or lines. The other option I've tried is simple copy and paste, but
this makes the document very large.

Any sugestions?

One option is to open your PowerPoint file, click "File", "Save as", change
the "Save as type" dropdown to say "JPGs". This will save each slide (if
you select that option), to an individual JPG file. That way you can go
into your Word document and click "Insert", "Picture", "From file" and
select the desired slide.

Another option are a couple of Handout add-ins available from some of our
other PowerPoint MVP folks.
