What can you do?

First, memoQ converts the presentation into the PPTX format (the one used by PowerPoint 2007 or later).

Under Select import type: Click Import as PPTX. Do not click Import as PPT through Office Interop.

This works if PowerPoint 2007 or later is installed on your computer. memoQ calls PowerPoint to save the document in the newest format.

If PowerPoint 2007 or later isn't installed: Check the Aspose check box. memoQ converts the document into the newest format on its own. For that, memoQ uses a module called Aspose.

Click Import markup as inline tags. The other option is to import all formatting markup as legacy memoQ {tags}, which is not recommended.

Import or ignore master slides, notes, comments, or hidden slides

If there are text boxes with several lines of text, separated by soft line breaks: Normally, they will be together in one segment, and the soft breaks appear as inline tags. If you need separate segments: Clear the Import soft breaks as inline tags check box.

Deal with content that work in the newest PowerPoint versions only
