我的同事多次问我如何将 PowerPoint 转换为DVD、Flash或 PDF ,所以我终于要写一个关于如何做到这一点的教程了!(PDF)在很多情况下,您在进行演示时无法访问运行Microsoft PowerPoint的计算机,在这些情况下,加载(Microsoft PowerPoint)DVD、播放Flash 等电影文件(movie file)或在 iPad 上显示PDF 文档(PDF document)可能会更容易。
将演示文稿转换为DVD非常棒,因为它可以在世界上任何DVD 播放器(DVD player)上播放,无论是笔记本电脑、台式机还是独立的DVD 播放器(DVD player)。转换为PDF适合那些希望以电子方式发送演示幻灯片但又不希望人们能够编辑或修改幻灯片的人。最后,转换为Flash 或视频(Flash or video)对于希望将演示文稿嵌入网站或仅使用媒体播放器软件(player software)进行演示的人非常有用。
转换为视频也很不错,因为您可以将这些视频上传到 YouTube 或Facebook 进行共享。转换为MP4 格式(MP4 format)可让您在智能手机、平板电脑或其他移动设备上欣赏PowerPoint演示文稿!(PowerPoint)所以让我们开始吧。
将 PowerPoint 转换为 PDF
如果您安装了较新版本的Office,那么有一种非常简单的方法可以将您的演示文稿转换为PDF 格式(PDF format)。您所要做的就是保存文件并选择PDF作为文件类型(file type)。我使用这种方法已经有一段时间了,它可以将您的演示文稿完全按原样转换为PDF 文档(PDF doc)。首先(First),打开您的演示文稿并单击(presentation and click)文件(File),然后 单击另存为(Save As)。
在另存为对话框中,继续并从另存为类型(Save as type)下拉框中选择PDF 。默认情况下,它将是标准尺寸的PDF,这意味着它可以用于打印或在线发布(printing or online publishing)。如果您想要更小尺寸的PDF,请选择最小尺寸(在线出版)(Minimum size (online publishing))。
您还可以单击“选项(Options)”按钮并选择要包含在PDF中的幻灯片,是否将幻灯片打印为PDF或注释、讲义或大纲,是否包含注释等。
单击保存(Save),您现在将拥有一个包含所有PowerPoint幻灯片的PDF 文档。(PDF document)如果您运行的是旧版本的Office,并且没有保存为PDF的选项,那么您唯一的选择是使用像 CutePDF Writer这样的软件将演示文稿打印为PDF 格式(PDF format)。 CutePDF Writer允许您为可以打印的任何内容创建PDF 。(PDFs)
您会注意到左侧有两个链接,一个免费下载,一个免费转换器,您需要下载并安装它们。您也可以单击Get Zipped Setup,其中包含压缩格式的两个文件。现在转到PowerPoint,打开您的演示文稿,选择“打印(Print)”,然后从下拉菜单中选择“ CutePDF Writer ”。
将 PowerPoint 转换(Convert PowerPoint)为 Flash 或视频(Flash or Video)
如果您正在寻找将PowerPoint转换为视频或 Flash 的免费方法,您有几个选择。第一种方法与我们将演示文稿保存为PDF 格式(PDF format)的方式几乎相同。
在较新版本的Office中,您可以将带有所有过渡和动画的演示文稿保存为Windows Media 文件(Windows Media file)。然后,您可以使用第三方软件将其转换为 flash、MP4或您需要的任何视频格式。首先(First)打开演示文稿并确保查看幻灯片并调整动画/过渡的时间。尝试使其尽可能自动化,而不需要单击鼠标,因为这些将在视频中自动转换,但持续时间将是默认值(default value),而不是您选择的值。
接下来,单击File,然后单击Save as 并选择Windows Media Video作为文件类型(file type)。
点击保存(Save),您现在就有了演示视频!视频的质量以及在幻灯片、时间、动画、音频和过渡方面与(audio and transitions)PowerPoint中的实际演示几乎 100 % match给我留下了深刻的印象。
第二种方法涉及获取完整的演示文稿并将其上传到名为AuthorStream的站点。您必须注册才能使用该服务,但它是免费的,绝对值得。AuthorStream还将保留您在演示文稿中可能拥有的任何录音。
上传并转换后,您将看到一个下拉列表Download和一个Video。在下载下,您可以将演示文稿转换为Flash,在视频下,您可以将其转换为MP4 视频(MP4 video)(最多 5 分钟免费)。
除了AuthorStream,您还可以查看Slideshare、iSpring和 Zoho Show ,以获取您的PowerPoint 演示文稿(PowerPoint presentation)的 Flash 版本。然后您可以将它们嵌入到您的博客或网站(blog or website)中。
如果要将Windows 电影视频(Windows Movie Video)转换为另一种格式,可以使用在线视频转换工具或(video conversion)HandBrake等第三方软件。请随意(Feel)阅读我之前的文章,其中我解释了转码和视频文件(video file)格式的概念。
将 PowerPoint 转换为 DVD
将PowerPoint 演示文稿(PowerPoint presentation)转换为视频格式后,将其放入DVD也相当简单。因此,首先您必须按照上述说明将视频转换为任何视频格式,然后您可以按照说明将视频刻录到DVD。
在没有任何附加软件的情况下在Windows(Windows)上执行此操作的最简单方法是使用Windows DVD Maker,它包含在Windows Vista Home Premium/Ultimate and Windows 7 Home Premium/Professional/Ultimate中。该软件在Windows 8中被删除,原因不明。我将在下面为Windows 8(Windows 8)用户提及第三方程序。
在Windows DVD Maker中,首先您必须选择要包含在DVD中的(DVD)照片和视频(photos and videos)。我刚刚选择了我的简短PowerPoint 演示文稿,您可以看到它告诉您(PowerPoint presentation)DVD上还剩多少时间,并让您更改DVD的标题。
在下一个屏幕上,您可以选择不同的菜单样式,还可以更改菜单文本(menu text)、自定义菜单和预览菜单。继续使用选项和设置,直到您对结果感到满意为止。例如,我去掉了Scenes ,因为我的(Scenes)DVD上只有一个视频,而且没有任何意义。
弹出您的 DVD,然后单击刻录(Burn)。如果您愿意,您将拥有一张漂亮的可播放DVD,它可以包含一个或数百个PowerPoint演示文稿!对于那些没有Windows DVD Maker的人,您可以查看一个名为DVDStyler的免费程序。
我不会在这里详细介绍如何使用该程序,因为它使用起来超级简单,而且因为他们的网站上有足够的支持文档。这个程序也比Windows DVD Maker有更多的选择,所以如果你想对你的(Windows DVD Maker)DVD进行更多的定制,它可能是一个更好的选择。
而已!希望(Hopefully),使用上面的指南,您已经能够将您的PowerPoint 演示文稿(PowerPoint presentation)转换为所需的格式!如果您有任何问题,请发表评论。享受!
How to Convert PowerPoint to DVD, Video and PDF
I’ve been asked how to convert a PowerPoint to DVD, Flash, or PDF so many timeѕ by mу co-workers that I am finally gоing tо just write a tυtorial on hоw to do it! There are many occasionѕ when you dоn’t have access to a computer running Microsoft РowerPoint when giving a presentation and in those сases it might be easier to load a DVD, play a moviе file like flаsh or shоw a РDF doсument off an iPad.
Converting a presentation to DVD is great because it’s playable on any DVD player in the world, whether it be a laptop, desktop, or stand-alone DVD player. Converting to PDF is good for those who want to send the presentation slides electronically, but don’t want people to be able to edit or modify the slides. Finally, converting to Flash or video is useful for those who want to embed the presentation on a web site or simply show it using media player software.
Converting to video is also a nice because you can then upload those videos to YouTube or Facebook for sharing. Converting to MP4 format will allow you to enjoy PowerPoint presentations on your smartphone, tablet or other mobile device! So let’s get into it.
Convert PowerPoint to PDF
If you have the newer versions of Office installed, then there is a really simple way to get your presentations into PDF format. All you have to do is save the file and choose PDF for the file type. I’ve been using this method for a while and it converts your presentation exactly as is to a PDF doc. First, open your presentation and click on File and then Save As.
In the save as dialog, go ahead and choose PDF from the Save as type dropdown box. By default, it will be a standard size PDF, which means it can be used for printing or online publishing. If you want a smaller size PDF, choose Minimum size (online publishing).
You can also click on the Options button and choose which slides you want to include in the PDF, whether to print the slides to PDF or the notes, handouts, or outline, whether to include comments, etc.
Click Save and you’ll now have a PDF document with all your PowerPoint slides. If you’re running an older version of Office and there is no option to save as PDF, then your only option is to print the presentation to PDF format using software like CutePDF Writer. CutePDF Writer allows you to create PDFs for anything that you can print.
You’ll notice two links on the left side, one for free download and one for free converter, you need to download both and install them. You can also just click on Get Zipped Setup, which includes both files in compressed format. Now go to PowerPoint, open your presentation, choose Print, and choose CutePDF Writer from the drop down menu.
Convert PowerPoint to Flash or Video
If you’re looking for a free way to convert PowerPoint to video or flash, you have a couple of options. The first method is pretty much the same as how we saved our presentation to PDF format.
In the newer versions of Office, you can save your presentation with all transitions and animations as a Windows Media file. Using third-party software, you can then convert this to flash, MP4, or whatever video format you need. First open the presentation and make sure you review your slideshow and adjust the timings for the animations/transitions. Try to make it as automated as possible without the need for mouse clicks as those will automatically be converted in the video, but the duration will be a default value instead of something of your choice.
Next, click File, then Save as and choose Windows Media Video for the file type this time around.
Click Save and you now have a video of your presentation! I was quite impressed with the quality of the video and the almost 100% match to the actual presentation in PowerPoint in terms of slides, timings, animations, audio and transitions.
The second method involves taking a completed presentation and uploading it to a site called AuthorStream. You have to sign up to use the service, but it’s free and definitely worth it. AuthorStream will also keep any audio recordings that you may have in the presentation.
Once you have it uploaded and it is converted, you will see a dropdown for Download and one for Video. Under download, you can convert the presentation to Flash and under video you can convert it to an MP4 video (up to 5 minutes for free).
In addition to AuthorStream, you can check out Slideshare, iSpring, and Zoho Show for getting flash versions of your PowerPoint presentation. You can then embed them into your blog or website.
If you want to convert the Windows Movie Video to another format, you can use online video conversion tools or third-party software like HandBrake. Feel free to read my previous post where I explain the concept of transcoding and video file formats.
Convert PowerPoint to DVD
Getting your PowerPoint presentation onto a DVD is also fairly simple once you get it into video format. So first you’ll have to follow the instructions above to get you video into any video format and then you can follow the directions to burn the video to DVD.
The easiest way to do this on Windows without any additional software is to use Windows DVD Maker, which is included with Windows Vista Home Premium/Ultimate and Windows 7 Home Premium/Professional/Ultimate. The software was removed in Windows 8 for no apparent reason. I’ll mention a third-party program below for Windows 8 users.
In Windows DVD Maker, first you have to choose the photos and videos that you want to include on the DVD. I just chose my short PowerPoint presentation and you can see it tells you how much time is left on the DVD and lets you change the title of the DVD.
On the next screen, you can choose from different menu styles and you can also change the menu text, customize the menu and preview the menu. Go ahead and play around with the options and settings until you are happy with the results. For example, I got rid of Scenes because I only have one video on the DVD and it doesn’t make any sense.
Pop in your DVD and then click Burn. You’ll have a nice looking playable DVD that can contain one or hundreds of PowerPoint presentations if you like! For those of you who don’t have Windows DVD Maker, you can check out a free program called DVDStyler.
I won’t go into detail here about how to use the program namely because it’s super simple to use, but also because they have enough support docs on their website. This program also has a lot more options than Windows DVD Maker, so it might be a better choice if you want more customization of your DVD.
That’s it! Hopefully, using the guides above you have been able to convert your PowerPoint presentation into the desired format! If you have any questions, post a comment. Enjoy!
