pete Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Does anyone know how to set this as a default in powerpoint? I'm aware it's the default in 2007 (woohoo) but I'd like to bulk-process the legacy ones. Thinking about it, batch processing them to resave as 2007 format and delete the original should work as well, right?
Michael Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 I've had a look at Office 2003's ORK Tools and I cannot see any policies relating to this. You can do it in PowerPoint 2003, but it requires you to do it manually. I don't believe you can switch it on by default as with Office 2007.
ZeroHour Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 I wish there was a switch for this too badly. Teachers NEVER do it and they get HUGE powerpoints for it.

pete Posted July 16, 2009 Author Posted July 16, 2009 (edited) It's worth looking at the scan functionality in the same toolkit as well: Install and configure OMPM File Scanner You'll need a SQL instance if you're doing all docs school-wide - I'm currently testing on a copy of archived homedirs from last years leavers.
