I've got a 45 MB PPT XP w/video, 2 audio tracks, graphics... the whole thang! I'm interested in burning it on a CD and playing it back on a Mac PPT OS X. Any suggestions?

TIA

Hi, Orson!

Shouldn't be a problem opening a Win PPT in Mac. The only problem is that the movies (and may be the other multimedia) may not work. To get around that, make sure that all multimedia and even the graphics are included with PPT in the same folder. The reason I also suggest the graphics is both Mac and Win translate graphics a little differently (have not heard of a problem with Graphics).

Hope that helps.

Thanks for your support! I think a related issue would be whether Windows XP and Mac OS X share the same CODECS. Do you have any insight into that issue?
