Save Presentation as a PowerPoint 2010 Show File

Once you are happy with the PowerPoint triggers, you need to save the presentation as a PowerPoint show file rather than a PowerPoint presentation. This will embed the sound/music files into the presentation so that they will be included when you email this show to others -- (assuming that you used WAV files as your sound file format).

  1. Choose File > Save As
  2. In the Save As dialog box, type a name for the file (if it is not already named) and then click on the drop down arrow for Save as type:
  3. Scroll to select the option PowerPoint Show (*.ppsx).
  4. Click the Save button.
