There is an interesting article in the Knowledge Base,
#224663, that addresses the issue of how a Word document
can balloon in size depending on how on inserts a graphic.
I was wondering if anyone knows whether the same phenomenon
occurs in PowerPoint? I am suspecting it does.
 
Yes Tom,

Check the FAQ for some good thoughts about file size and graphics insertion
techniques.

Who *writes* this stuff? Worse, what editor lets them get away with it?

I can't figure out what they're trying to tell us in that KB article. Whether
they mean that the original DOC file blossoms or the ones saved to older
versions do.

PPT definitely makes 'em bigger if you save to any older format, but the good
news is that there's nearly no reason on earth to do so. Not unless you need
to maintain compatibility with PowerPoint 95 users and then you're probably
better off sending them a current Viewer to use rather than a backward saved
file.
