PPT2HTML system requirements
Hardware Requirements
If your computer can handle the PowerPoint files you typically work with, it will work very well with PPT2HTML.
Office/PowerPoint and Windows versions
PPT2HTML is an add-in for Windows PowerPoint. It works with these versions of PowerPoint:
- PowerPoint 2000
- PowerPoint 2002 (aka XP)
- PowerPoint 2003
- PowerPoint 2007
- PowerPoint 2010 32-bit
PPT2HTML will NOT work in:
- PowerPoint 2010 64-bit
- Office 2010 Click-To-Run
- PowerPoint 97
- Any of the supported PowerPoint versions listed above running in Windows under Parallels/Fusion/Bootcamp on MacOS X.
- And should work under any of the supported versions of PowerPoint listed above running in Windows under an emulator or virtual machine in any operating system.
- In short, if your system can run any of the supported Windows PowerPoint versions listed above, PPT2HTML should work as well.
PPT2HTML is compatible with Windows 98 through Windows 7. It has not been tested with, and may not be compatible with 64-bit versions of Windows or Office 2010/64-bit.
The free PPT2HTML demo will allow you to test thoroughly for yourself. If the demo works well for you, so will the purchased, fully registered version.
Other notes
When you install PPT2HTML in PowerPoint 2007 or 2010, you'll see a new "Add-ins" tab on the Office ribbon and on it, Menu Commands and Custom Toolbars groups instead of the PPTools menu bar item and PPT2HTML toolbar that would appear in PowerPoint 2003 and previous. The functions are the same in either case.
PowerPoint 2007 and PPT2HTML
A serious bug in the original release of PowerPoint 2007 causes it to crash when PPT2HTML tests for hyperlinks (earlier versions of PowerPoint do not have this problem). Office 2007 Service Pack 1 (SP1) corrects this problem. If you plan to use PPT2HTML with PowerPoint 2007, you should download and install SP1.
Be aware that a different bug introduced in SP1 causes corruption in images exported at over 960 pixels wide from default-sized (10" x 7.5") slides. The original release of PowerPoint 2007 doesn't have this problem.
Because of this, PPT2HTML can only export images at up to 96 * PageWidth if you're using PowerPoint with SP1.
If you request larger images, they'll be exported at this size instead.
If you request smaller images, they'll be exported at the requested size.
In most cases, you'll be exporting smaller images for web use, so this should not be a major problem.
Is there a version of PPT2HTML that doesn't require PowerPoint?
No, nor can we recommend any other sources or any code libraries, free or otherwise, that would support a converter.
If you need to support multiple users in mixed computing environment, consider PPT2HTML Batch. You can install it on a single inexpensive Windows computer, give the computer access to a shared server folder where users save PowerPoint files for conversion and let it convert their files automatically, unattended.
