How To Open PowerPoint PPS Files Without PowerPoint Installed
T.Jones asked the following question:
QUESTION: A relative of mine sends me email containing .pps files. I do not have PowerPoint on my computer. Can I open these files? Thanks.
ANSWER: Dear Mr/Ms Jones,
To open or view either type of file, you’ll have to have PowerPoint or a PowerPoint Viewer on your system. The files differ only in one respect: PPS files open directly into PowerPoint’s slide show player, while PPT files open in the PowerPoint editor. Most finalized presentations are saved as PPS files so people viewing them don’t have to go through any extra steps to view the presentation as it was intended.
To view your relative .PPS presentations you need to download a Microsoft FREE PowerPoint viewer
For the Mac the PowerPoint Viewer 4
Note: You can view and print presentations, but you cannot edit them in the PowerPoint Viewer. The PowerPoint Viewer supports all PowerPoint 97 and PowerPoint 95 features. Some PowerPoint 2000 and 2002 features are not supported by the viewer, specifically:
For updated viewers see also: www.microsoft.com and the download center.
