How to convert PowerPoint to PDF ?

Considering my previous post "How to combine two different PowerPoint ? " , some users requested to post about converting PowerPoint file to PDF. Do you want to protect your article by converting into an uneditable format (PDF) ? I have some easy-solutions for you.

Portable Document Format (PDF) is the final format of the documents which are created from some different sources such as Microsoft Word, PowerPoint etc. Once the file is converted to PDF, it cannot be edited or rewritten. Thus this protects actual writing of author. Similarly, PDF file is easy to use, copy and transfer. If you are using PowerPoint 2010 or PowerPoint 2011 its very easy to convert PowerPoint to PDF . But, if you are using PowerPoint 2007 you should download 2007 Microsoft Add-In which hardly takes 1 minutes.


Here are the method to convert PowerPoint file to PDF :


Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 

       PowerPoint 2007 provides a facility to directly convert PowerPoint to PDF. However, you must download 2007 Microsoft Add-In to complete this process. Once this file is downloaded , there's no need to download it later. 

Here is the link to download 2007 Microsoft Add-In : Microsoft Add-In 2007
