How to Convert Powerpoint to Ecard
PowerPoint does not have a direct export option to Ecard, as Ecard is not a format, but a multimedia email, a specialized message that contains either pictures or video files. In order to get a PowerPoint slide show to an Ecard, you will have to convert it into a movie file and then upload it to an Ecard service. It can be a little time consuming, but in the end you can have a lovely Ecard to send someone.
