Hi Everybody!
I was trying to convert a word file to a power point presentation.

However, the file did not convert properly, alignments changed, outline
changed.

The text distributed all over different slides.

Is it posiible to convert a wordfile with a no of pages, one page is equal
to one slide?
Please Help.
Thanks & Regards
Nad

There is no direct correlation between Word and PowerPoint. Powerpoint is a
page based application, Word isn't. Any attempt to import Word documents as
PP presentations is going to be hit and miss.

The Powerpoint group might be the better place to ask this, but...

Generally, the "conversion" tool works with Word's heading styles. Every
Heading style 1 it finds should be the start of a new slide, with the Heading
1 text as the slide's title. Use the other heading styles to control the
outlining.

If you want every Heading 1 to start on a new Word page, change the style
definition to use "Page Break before" (From Format/Paragraph/Line and Page
breaks).

Hi Graham,

There is no direct correlation between Word and PowerPoint.

File/Send to/Microsoft Office Powerpoint

That function is certainly available, as is the facilty to import Word
documents in PowerPoint, but the result is usually a dog's breakfast and
with many documents unusable.
