Saving as PDF

PDF is a document format that preserves the basic formatting of a document and does not require the recipient of the document to have the application used to create the document in order to view it. The viewer must install the Adobe Acrobat Reader, but this is available for free and is a standard component of current Web browsers.

The disadvantage of creating a PDF version of a PowerPoint presentation is that you lose transitions and animation effects.

To create a PDF file, you must first install the Adobe Acrobat software, which is available on NuNet.

Then, follow these steps:

1. From the File menu, choose Print.
2. In the Printer Name drop-down menu, choose Adobe PDF Writer.
3. Choose an option in the Print What drop-down menu. You can create a PDF document of slides, notes pages, or a handout format.
4. Click OK.

Your PDF document will appear in the same directory as your original PowerPoint file. It will have the same name, with a .pdf extension.
