• Choose a location at which to save the file.
• Make sure “Append file extension” is checked.
• Click the “Options” button.
• For “Save PowerPoint files as” choose the option with the word “presentation” rather than the one with the word “movie”
• Click the “OK” button to close the “Options” window and click the “OK” button to save the file.
• If you included any video clips or other linked objects in your presentation, you will need to create a StuffIt (.sit) or zipped (.zip) archive including the .ppt file you just saved, any video clips, and other linked objects.  This archive should be uploaded.
• If you did not include any video clips or other linked objects, you can upload the .ppt file that you just saved.
