Protect system requirements

Hardware Requirements

If your computer can handle the PowerPoint files you typically work with, it will work very well with Protect.

Office/PowerPoint and Windows versions

Protect is an add-in for Windows PowerPoint. It works with these versions of PowerPoint:

Protect will NOT work in:

BUT ... Protect WILL work in:

Protect 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 Protect 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 Protect 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 Protect toolbar that would appear in PowerPoint 2003 and previous. The functions are the same in either case.

PowerPoint 2007 and Protect

A serious bug introduced in Office 2007 Service Pack 1 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, Protect 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.

We apologize for the inconvenience and hope that Microsoft will fix the problem quickly.
