Converting a PowerPoint File to an ECA File
Important!
Before performing any of the operations here, you will need to have a file created using
Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003 or 2007 on hand.
Conversion of a PowerPoint file to an ECA file requires playback of the original file from
beginning to end. Note that the time required for conversion will roughly correspond to the
time required for playback.
Note
Starting a conversion operation with EZ-Converter FA will temporarily change the screen
settings of your computer as shown below. Screen settings will revert back to what they were
after the conversion operation is complete.
The screen resolution of the ECA file will be the resolution specified by EZ-Converter FA
setting (1280
× 800 or 1024 × 768) when the file conversion operation starts. For information
about configuring this setting, see “To specify the screen resolution of the ECA file” (page 16).
