Hi everyone. Is there any method to convert PPT (or PPS files) to a non-editable format? PDF is not an option here, because the animations in the presentation need to remain intact. EXE might be possible (flash based, perhaps?), but how...?

Thanks in advance :)

How to Convert PowerPoint Presentations to Video - convert to video if that is ok...
How to Convert PowerPoint Presentation (PPT) to Video (AVI/MPEG), Flash and CD/DVD - a lot of options, mostly free trials
Convert and Save PowerPoint 2010 Presentation or Slideshow in Windows Media Video (WMV) Without Third-Party App - if you have Office 2010

Non of these are exe's, but they are non-editable (except through video editor)

Hi Hatryst,
Are you able to save it as a Powerpoint Show - if using 07
click that office logo in the top left hand corner, Save As, Powerpoint show.

hope this helps :)

Thanks matteotom, i'll give these a try...
Studio, Actually a powerpoint show is editable, even though you make it password protected. I want to convert the PPT file to a flash-based format that allows me to change slides and animation like on a normal PPT file, but it is flash, and uneditable. Hope its easy to understand :)

You could "Mark as Final" - then it is Read Only.

That's quite nice, whs...!
That's what i wanted (the reason of converting the presentation to something else was that i wanted to preserve all the effort put in the animations, and other stuff, and that's it !)

Thanks :)
