Word to Powerpoint

[Ket]

Hello,

I have a word 2003 document, set up in Landscape and about 20 pages
long.
Is it possible to import this document into Powerpoint 2003 so that
each page becomes a separate slide?

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Regards,
Ket

If the word document is set up in the Outline format, then yes. The easiest
way to check out if it meets your needs is to send it to PowerPoint and see
how it looks.

Try formatting your word file like this

Every line that you want as a slide title = heading1 format
Everything else = heading 2

Then send to word

For Send Word to PowerPoint feature,
Setting the style Heading 1 will become the Title text.
Heading 2 will become the bullet (Content).
Heading 3 will become the sub bullet, then heading 4 sub-bullet of a
sub-bullet, so on and so forth.

Take note though, that all unformatted text will be omitted. Objects such as
diagrams and images cannot be sent.
