Transfering presentations from powerpoint to Keynote

Hi
I have transfered a powerpoint presentation onto Keynote and have two problems.
1. When i saved the presenation in Keynote the text does not appear on the presentaion as the texts that are on the presenation are not part of Apples fonts. The texts are Unviers LT Std, Baskerville MT Std and Baskerville MT Std semi bold. How can I import the fonts onto the ipad (which are saved on my works W drive)?? Or can I buy them?
2. When I save the presenation in i-books as a PDF the images of the presenations do not come up!! Does anybody know why?
Please let me know if you have any ideas.
Thanks
Rose

These are the fonts that Keynote on the iPad supports:
iPad supports over 40 fonts and font families which can be used with iWork for iPad apps. When importing a presentation that uses a font not available on iPad, iWork attempts to replace an unsupported font with one that is a close match. If a close match is not found, the Helvetica font will be used instead. After the import process, fonts that were replaced are listed for review by the user.
Fonts available on the iPad include:
American Typewriter
AppleGothic
Arial
Baskerville
Bodoni 72
Bradley Hand
Chalkduster
Cochin
Copperplate
Courier
Courier New
Didot
Futura
Geeza Pro
Georgia
Gill Sans
Heiti J
Helvetica
Hoefler Text
Marker Felt
Optima
Palatino
Papyrus
Party LET
Snell Roundhand
Thonburi
Times New Roman
Trebuchet MS
Verdana
Zapf Dingbats
Zapfino
Sorry to say you can't add fonts to the iPad. The Baskerville font that you are using may not be supported. Even tho it is in the supported list above.
For your second question. Are you making the keynote PDF on the iPad or on a computer? What file format are the images? I just made a two slide keynote with images on the iPad. I converted the keynote to a PDF and emailed to myself. When I open the email, I picked iBooks to open the PDF. All image were there in iBooks.

I'm changing from powerpoint to Keynote. In powerpoint you can change slides by typing in the slide number and hitting enter. I want to do the same in keynote without the slide switcher popping up at the top. Possible?

Wow, I may be losing my mind, you're right. I guess I was doing what you said out of old habits and not even realizing it. Much appreciated.

Conversions from PowerPoint to Keynote... again

Sorry if this is an FAQ, but there is no FAQ file available yet, and I can't find an answer by wading through thousands of posts.
I have a lot of PPT files which are provided by the textbook publisher for a course I am teaching, and I would like to use this material. However, I use Keynote exclusively for my own lectures, and want to convert the PPT files so I can customize them. I am running Keynote 2.0.2 and PowerPoint 11.2.4 on OS X 10.4.7.
When I open these files in Keynote, most of the bulleted text and some of the simple graphics come across OK, but unfortunately, a lot of the more complicated graphics don't. When the original slide has a lot of lines, rectangles, etc., the conversion seems to change all of the graphics into a single uneditable bitmap of some sort. I have experimented with cutting and pasting indivisual graphical objects from PowerPoint to Keynote, and even on simple things like a line segment at a 45 degree angle, the object gets converted to a picture, and worse yet, the line width is changed from the original 2 points to 6 points!
None of these files are complicated or "challenging". There are no transitions, animations, videos, audio, or any of the things that seem to plague a lot of users. I am just talking about text and simple line drawings (schematics, etc.) I suspect that there are tricks or procedures that I am not doing right, but don't know where to look for help other than this forum. Can anyone give me an assist?
Thanks

Most of this stuff appears to be just simple line art primitives. What begins as a line in the ppt file ends up being a .pict file dropped in to the Keynote file. It isn't consistent either; a lot of objects come across OK (rectangles, horizontal and vertical lines, for instance). Angled lines and more complicated shapes seem to be converted to .pict drop-ins.
I am continuing to explore this; I'll post any significant discoveries.
Thanks

"Adobe Presenter has encountered an unexpected problem while working with this presentation. Try saving your work to a new file and restarting PowerPoint. If the problem persists, consult the Help menu item, or contact support at http://www.adobe.com/support/presenter."

Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.

Which version of MS Office are you using ?
Did you try using Adobe Presneter with a different user account of your computer ?
Does this happen with every presentation or with a specific presentation ?

Moving Animated Images from Powerpoint to keynote

Hi
I'm just getting into using Keynote as i have just starting lecturing
All the lecture files i have been given are Powerpoint Presentations
I have converted all of them to Keynote but i am having a bit of a problem with one
It has an image which when you play back the slideshow in powerpoint it is animated
The image is not a photo image I think it is a Flash image but i'm not sure as i cannot track down the maker of the PP file & i cannot find any info about it as the only place i can see it is in the PP presentation & that doesn't give too much away either
I'm probably not giving you enough info about it but its as much as i can come up with myself
The question is as you have probably worked out is how can i take the image from the PP presentation & put it into the Keynote Presentation with the animation working in Keynote
Thanks for your time

Great Question! The answer is not as great. From my previous work the only way I have gotten good results is to open powerpoint and keynote then copy/paste each slide over and build the transitions I want into the presentation. This has been the only way to get the results I wanted.
Hope this helps.

PDF Presentation from PowerPoint

I've created a presentation in PowerPoint and converted it to a PDF. When I try to use the PDF as a presentation my remote for the projector will not work. Is there a setting in Acrobat Pro that can change this or a Javascript?

Open your presentation in PowerPoint go to Print menu (at least in Mac version) look for PDF eith click the button or click and hold and choose desired type of PDF.
Acrobat X
Mac OSX 4 through 7.x

Captivate 8 not transfering fonts from PowerPoint?

I am using Captivate 8. I created a PPT presentation using Bank Gothic BT Medium font. The first time I created a PowerPoint project in Cap8, everything transfered perfectly.
I made some updates to the PPT file, then updated the file within Cap8, and the font changed to something like Arial. No matter what I do, I cannot get the font to update to the correct font, even though it originally transfered over.
To experiment, I made ANOTHER PPT presentation using the same font, and started ANOTHER Cap 8 project, this time from within the program (started Blank project, then inserted PPT presentation). This time the font didn't transfer at all.
Is this a bug issue with Cap 8 not recognizing the font, or is this a PPT issue not transfering the font information from the master slide?

Answering my own question:
My solution was so simple I am embarassed to relate it: I closed Captivate and reopened the program, and now my fonts transfer over. It seems.. (eh hem)... *someone* forgot that when you download and install a new font, you have to close and reopen any program you have open where you will be working with fonts. In this case, I had both PowerPoint and Captivate open however, I opened PowerPoint AFTER I installed the font. So, yeah. One solution. If you are experiencing this font issue, try closing and reopening your project. SAVE FIRST THOUGH!

Images not appearing on slide when converted from Powerpoint to Keynote

My Pastor's Powerpoint slides converted nicely to Keynote except 2 pictures at the top of one slide. He saved just that slide as a separate ppt file and I could see the images in the thumbnail, but they're gone when it's opened in Keynote. I'm thinking a layering problem, but I'm new to iMac and Keynote. Any suggestions?

Hi Lilybiri,
I have (again) requested my IT dept to take a look at what is going on.
If they cannt/wont help, then I may well take up Rick's very kind offer.
The more I think about it, the more I believe my problem(s) stem from having to link up to Adobe when working on-line.
It takes about 30 seconds from the time I open the initial Captivate start screen (attached) before any of the links become active.
That strikes me as way too long and might be the cause of the problem.
Any idea if this "link to Adobe" can to turned off? What do I need the link for anyway...day to day?

Transferring a Keynote presentation from my computer to another Mac. How do I know which fonts to transfer?

I am transferring a large Keynote presentation from my computer to another Mac. How do I know which fonts were used in my presentation to be able to see if the other Mac has those as well?

When importing keynote presentations from ituns to ipad, do they occupy double the space on the ipad?

When I import presentations from mac to ipad I put them first on ipad thorough itunes when the ipad is connected, then from the keynote app I import the presentations. After can I delete the presentations from itunes? and if i don't will they occupy double the space on my ipad?

Keynote files are not contained in iTunes
iTunes is used as an import application for iOS devices
When transferring files from Mac to iOS devices iTunes, does not hold files, only a link to the file on the Mac
Do not confuse downloading music to iTunes

Is it possible to transmit powerpoint presentations from apple tv

I am wondering if there is a way for me to transmit from my computer a powerpoint presentation from apple tv to my tv? I have to drag this really long cord to hook up my computer to my tv to be able to make this happen. I would love to see if there is a way to make this happen. Does anyone know how to do this?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Sorry, there's no way of doing this, the only way is with the cable (Apple TV not required)
If the presentation is suitable you might export it as a video and add it to iTunes.
If you have an iPad 2, iOS 5 will allow you to mirror it's display to a TV via the Apple TV, which would let you play keynote presentations on your TV.

No audio on keynote from Powerpoint.

Went importing Powerpoint presentation I am unable to get the audio.

I opened directly from my email on my Apple laptop. I opened it using Keynote from PowerPoint file. How do I change it and insert anything? It just did not have audio output. Period.
BTW, I did the same thing on any PC. Voila! No problem. PowerPoint on PC works like a charm. I am not happy with Keynote that I thought would take care of my PowerPoint files from my Macbook pro. What else could I do? Hopefully, Apple will update to solve this audio music problem of PowerPoint in the near future. Only Apple authority could help me.
I wonder if I could write my feedback from the Keynote purchased ($9.99). It wasted my dollars. Maybe I can have refund.

How can i transfer a keynote presentation from an iPad to another iPad? I haven't a wifi connection.

How can i transfer a keynote presentation from an iPad to another iPad? I haven't a wifi connection.

Depends on how big the file is. If itis only a couple of pages, or mostly text, the easiest way would be to e mail it. If it is a very large file you are going to need wifi. Take both pads to starbucks, and e mail it from there. Or if you have wifi, use drop box, for example.
Your other choice, avoiding wifi would be a bluetooth type transfer. There is an app call bluetooth file lite that reads like it will do what you need. The good news is it is free. The bad news is that it has terrible ratings. For grins, i am installing it now on a pad and a phone, and will see if it works.
With a bluetooth method, you need both devices in the same place. If you are trying to send your file across country, bluetooth will not work for you. you need e mail or drop box type solution, and if the file is big, you will almost certainly need wifi.
