I don't have PowerPoint anymore, but do have Open Document software.  A pal sent me a PP disk and I want to save some pics, but don't see how to do it.  I right click and there's not an option.   :???:

Thanks for any help.

Edit Subject line to Save, not Print.  :cheersmate:

There is always the fallback method of doing a "Print Screen" and then cropping it.

Oops! I meant I wanted to save the pics, not print.   :thatsright:

You would have to open the PPT in edit mode.  Do you have Open Office?  I think OO comes with a PowerPoint clone.

He meant copying what's on the screen and trimming/cropping to save the picture you want.

Press the Print Screen button, open Paint or some other picture editor, and Paste.

If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

Thanks for all your help!

This is about a 5th generation photo - thanks for your help.

Here's the pic I was trying to save to the hunka guy thread in the short bus thread from that PP.  Me and Bobby  :rotf:
