Mac Forum / Applications / PowerPoint / February 2005high res. jpegs in power point
How do I change the resolution of the jpegs in a powerpoint resolution. Currently they are 72 ppi but each one is 4.8 MB. Do I have to redo everything in Photoshop or can I change it in Powerpoint. Thanks for your help. BSG, It's not about ppi it's about pixels. See powerpoint graphics (pixels) tutorial http://www.powerpointbackgrounds.com/powerpointgraphics.htm and What's all this about DPI and INCHES and RESOLUTION? http://www.rdpslides.com/pptfaq/FAQ00075.htm Cheers TAJ Simmons microsoft powerpoint mvp awesome - powerpoint backgrounds, http://www.powerpointbackgrounds.com free powerpoint templates, tutorials, hints and tips etc > How do I change the resolution of the jpegs in a powerpoint resolution. > Currently they are 72 ppi but each one is 4.8 MB.

I like the tutorial :-) They should emphasize though that it's not the resolution of your screen that really matters at the end... It's the resolution you get through the Video projector :-)) Corentin  Signature--- Mac:MS MVP (Francophone) --- http://www.mvps.org - http://mvp.support.microsoft.com MVPs are not MS employees - Les MVP ne travaillent pas pour MS Remove "NoSpam" to e-mail me - Retirez "NoSpam" pour m'écrire > > BSG, > > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > not the resolution of your screen that really matters at the end...

Yep. ================================================ Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ One other note on the subject- In order to be 4.8 MB @ 72 ppi, the print dimensions of each image file would translate to ± 22"x15", even as jpegs. Remember that "shrinking" the images in PPt doesn't make the image, itself, any smaller. FWIW, Use PhotoShop to reduce the Document Size of each image to ± 3"x2" while maintaining the resolution @ 72-96 ppi (note the radical drop in pixel dimension as you do), then place the new versions in your presentation file. BTW, The 72-96 ppi is assuming that the presentation is being delivered on-screen. Print or 35mm output would require much higher resolution, but keep the Document Size geared to the amount of space the image is intended to occupy on a slide. |:>) |
