Presentation Animation Removal
I prefer create slides with animations to help the viewers follow the part of the slide I’m referring to. However, if you need a PDF version without animations then it becomes necessary to remove split the slides with animations into multiple slides. The following is the sequence of steps I used to do this as it takes a lot of the concentration out of the process making it more bearable.
For each slide do:
-
Remove the parts related to the pervious animations (Not applicable if not a duplicate of a page with animations from one of the other steps)
- Delete speaker notes from previous page (previous duplicate)
- Delete next set on animations that cause things to appear in a single click
- Delete items on the page that have disappear animations in that same single click
- Duplicate the page if it has at least one more click
- Ensure focus is on the earlier version of the page just duplicated
- Clear the speaker notes for the following clicks
- Delete items that have appear click animations
- Delete any animations that remove items
- Go to the next page
