    Ok I posted this earlier, but I’m still not understanding. I am importing power point presentations on top of 780 420 standard def footage. In the preview window it looks great when I click on just the power point slide, which I converted to gif (i tried png and jpeg also, with the same result). But when I import it into the time line, it doesn’t look as crisp. I’m not sure what I’m suppose to do. Someone mentioned scaling but I tried that and it didn’t change anything. Anyone have an answer to this?

    The ‘Save as Adobe PDF’ method does seem to be the best, short of purchasing Camtasia and going that route. In your previous post you stated that you couldn’t locate the saved PDF. When you choose ‘Save as Adobe PDF’, you are presented with a dialog box asking where to save the PDF. Look in the folder where you tell PPT to save to, and it should be there. To make things easier, save it to your Desktop.

    I think I didn’t explain it right. When I convert it to PDF, and go to import it into Premiere, it tells me that format is not supported.

    Actually, I think a step was left out. Open the PDF in Illustrator, and save as an Illustrator (AI) file. That will definitely import into Premiere.
