In PowerPoint 2007, click the Office button, then Save As. In the dialog box that opens up, look at the very bottom, immediately to the left of the ‘Save’ button. That’s where the Tools menu is. Click the down arrow next to it, and choose the bottom option: Compress pictures.

I am working on Powerpoint for Mac and there is no Tools button at all. I’ve already ’saved as’ and compressed the photos to ‘least’ and my powerpoint is still 28 MB. Anyone know what else to do?

help me please! In 2007, I can’t find the “tools” button on the “save as” menu like everyone is saying. All I have is “options” which does not help. Also, when I try to click on the picture and format it from there, there is no “compress picture” button there either! I’m on a Mac, if that makes a difference. Can anyone please help me? My ppt is 230 MB right now, and I need to compress it! Thanks.
