PowerPoint Presentation too Big to Save PSS ID Number: Q69212 Article last modified on 10-29-1991 PSS database name: W_PowerPt

Summary:

When a presentation gets too large, the following error will be received when you try to save the file:

Sorry, this presentation has grown too big to save in one file

At this point, the only option you will be offered is to choose OK.

More Information:

The contents of the slides will determine when you will receive this message. The number and kind of graphics and soft fonts your presentation uses, and the complexity of its color scheme, will affect how many slides your presentation can contain before it becomes “too big.”

You may have to choose OK many times, but eventually the presentation will save. The best thing to do at that point is to copy some of the slides to a blank presentation and save them separately.
