Hi doc folks,
I have this presentation from OSCON on data sharing for mod_perl, which is in PowerPoint. I can generate HTML from it, but it comes out pretty big and doesn't fit the style of the rest of the site. I plan to make a nice article version of this with simple POD formatting, but haven't done it yet. Is there any point in trying to put up the HTML version of the PowerPoint in the meantime, or is it not worth the trouble?
Hi Perrin,
I agree, PowerPoint HTML is really bad, and wouldn't work out well for the site. I suggest that we wait for your article, which I'm sure will be interesting.
Or actually, here's another solution: I just checked, and you can actually choose to save a PowerPoint presentation as a set of PNG files. This would be better. Except if you have a lot of notes together with your slides, which would be lost in this process (but could be re-added manually). Or, alternatively, you send me the PowerPoint file, and I convert it to a PDF file through Acrobat Distiller.
What do you think?
I actually had plans of making a "Conferences" section on the site, but that's been pretty much on hold for a while. The best would be to get a consistent format in which to present slides and notes, so that we could share presentations with everyone (AxPoint comes to mind, and then write a translator for DocSet that handles that).
