Try it! Get the free Merge demo

If you have 64-bit Office/PowerPoint, we have a new version of Merge that you'll want to install, rather than following the instructions below.

You can download it here.
This will download a ZIP file. Save it to any convenient location, and unzip it to extract the single .MSI file it contains.
Doubleclick the MSI file to install Merge.

This new version is 32- and 64-bit compatible and installs onto a new PPTools tab on the PowerPoint ribbon.

If you have 32-bit Office/PowerPoint and prefer to install the older version of Merge:

Follow these instructions whether you want to purchase and use Merge right away or just try the free Merge demo. In fact, we strongly recommend that you try out the demo first, then purchase Merge if you like it.

The demo you download and install now becomes a full, unlimited version once you purchase Merge. When you purchase Merge, you'll receive an email with a registration number and other information that will convert the demo into a registered, unlimited copy of Merge. You won't have to download or install anything else.

Here's all you need to do:

Get PowerPoint ready

Before you start, make sure your PowerPoint security settings don't prevent installation. You'll need to temporarily set them as described below. We'll show you how to reset them to a safe level once installation is complete.

Ready? Here we go:

Download and install Merge

Try Merge out

Reset PowerPoint security

Congratulations! Merge is now installed.

Please take a few minutes to look over the rest of this site to learn more about Merge

If you're short of time, Basic Merge setup and use and The PPTools Master Toolbar will be enough to get you started.
