Importing PPT slideshows

[Bodvar Bjorgvinsson]

PP does not seem to behave well when it comes to printing. My solution
would be to print to file full width (Letter/A4 - sadly printing will
not (Office 2003) print landscape) and then crop top and bottom all
pages. After that FM should be able to import by ref.

Any other ideas would be interesting to hear.
