Exporting keynote to ppt

[viperguy]

When using pages i noticed that when exporting to word i lose some more advanced formating sometimes... so i`m afraid to lose the formating when doing the same to keynote (effects, pictures, charts and transitions..)
has anyone had any problems with that?

Yeah, it's only natural that you'll lose some formatting: not all programs will interpret the file data the same way. My best advice is, keep it simple, otherwise you're more likely to encounter issues.

If it's not a complex Keynote, sometimes the easiest solution is to just export as a PDF. Of course, if you have animations and actions in your slideshow, they won't show up.

That said, I've not tried opening a Keynote (created with '08 and '09) in the latest versions of MS Office, Windows or Mac OS X... Perhaps it's better then older versions.

Keynote Exporting

I have this problem all the time with my keynote presentations. I love to use keynote with all the special effects, but always lose them when exporting. I record the sideshow, with my mike off, and get my timings down. Then I simply export it as a quick time movie and show it on a DVD or flash drive.

Let me know if you want some tips to this problem.

One of the best things to do is to export it as a QuickTime file. This will allow all of your transitions and effects to look the way you intended them to. This option even puts breaks in where you want the slideshow to pause. You advance thru it by clicking the mouse button just as you would if you were playing a normal slideshow.

Hmm I don`t know if the computer I will use supports quicktime (it`s probably a very old pc...) but I will try that!

one thing you could do is download the newest QuickTime and put it on a flash drive so that you could install it on the computer.
