File size

[Guest]

After compressing pictures as much as possible and saving, the file size is
still very large. How can I reduce the file size? The presentation is 3
slides with 4 tiny pictures. The original file size of the pictures was large.

Hi

I find paste special is the best way to reduce file sizes caused by big
images: get the image the right size then cut, edit->paste special->jpg or
png. Also check you have fast saves turned off: tools->options->save->untick
allows fast saves
