Yesterday, one of my most scrupulous students, Jin, called me and asked me for the easiest way to burn a PowerPoint presentation on a CD-ROM in order to distribute it inside her organization.
I answered Jin that this was indeed a difficult question, one that I have run into before and which has had me spend quite a few hours to find an appropriate solution.

Recently I attended a lecture about Mexican culture depicted
through the history of art. Somewhere in the middle of the
lecture, the computer just froze-up. I offered my help to fix
the presentation so that the lecture could be continued after a
short break.
Soon I found out that the problem was the size of the PowerPoint presentation. The PowerPoint presentations had almost 40 slides of uncompressed bitmap images. (You can immediately identify these images by their extension .bmp or, in some cases, .tif). The uncompressed images caused the size of the presentation to explode.
You can avoid this problem by using compressed images (e.g.
.jpg) when you create your presentation. However, if it is too
late for that because you are already in the middle of your
live presentation in front of your audience you can apply a
"quick & dirty" solution that can help you to present the
material at least fluently and without hiccups. The solution is
saving the slides that contain images in .jpg format and than
re-inserting them back into the presentation.
a) Open PowerPoint and the presentation that you need to
modify (in my case: "mexico.ppt").
b) Save the presentation under different name (in my case:
"mexico_modified.ppt"). This allows you to modify a copy of
your presentation (i.e. "mexico_modified.ppt") while keeping
the original ("mexico.ppt") safe.
c) Go to "File >> Save As...". From the list box called
"Save as type:" choose "JPEG File Interchange Format (*.jpg)" and
save your presentation in a folder that you can easily find again.
This folder will contain all your slides in a compressed .jpg
format. The slides will be labeled Slide1.jpg, Slide2.jpg etc.
