Alright, so we got the question in:
Will Markzware's PDF2DTP for
InDesign or QuarkXPress ...
Will that convert
Microsoft PowerPoint documents
as PDF files?
Well, the answer is yes,
and we're going to show you
that really quickly here.
Here's a PowerPoint presentation
and you can see all the
various elements in here:
charts, graphics, colors,
text, you name it.
We save it as a PDF and
here we have that PDF file.
We open it up here for you.
Here, you see how that looks.
Alright. So, what happens when
we go into InDesign, for example,
(It can also be Quark.)
with Markzware's new PDF2DTP,
a quick and easy way to
edit PDFs in your native
desktop publishing applications?
In PDF2DTP, we select Convert PDF.
Here's a host of preferences we can
arrange and optimize
for the task at hand,
but, for now, just to show
you this quick tip, you
just go there, Convert PDF.
Go to our desktop.
Select that PDF.
We click Open
and Markzware's PDF2DTP
converts the PDF file
right into a
native InDesign layout
with all fonts, images,
colors, graphics used.
Now, many who know PDF will
understand that it's
difficult to convert 100%
one to one, all the time.
You can see right here,
we do have some issues
with the text.
It's there, but it's not
the same exact color
that it was.
But you see we
get the logo,
logos, graphics,
and the rest of the text
I believe comes out
pretty darned good.
Look at that! Even the shadow,
the shadowing that was used,
colors,
the stylization.
And if we go in there,
we can edit that text.
So, this is fully editable text.
Really, really neat.
And you'll notice here,
even this graphic comes over,
which I find really cool.
So, we get the entire
graphic on how preflight will
save you a lot of time and money.
On that note, FlightCheck is now
out with a new version, v6.90,
not 80 anymore, which was for
slightly older PowerPoint.
But, anyway, you get the idea here.
It's a quick and easy way to
convert your PDF files right
into InDesign
and even PDF files
that were created
in PowerPoint. So, that's a
quick tip of the day, and
here's some customer feedback on
PDF2DTP.
"Before PDF2DTP, we used PitStop for the
corrections, now we can do it better!"
And that's the beauty with PDF2DTP.
Just see if we can get this PDF file
created in PowerPoint and now we can
manipulate it, edit it, and make it better
in the desktop publishing environment
we're familiar with,
Adobe InDesign.
