Can SWF files be used in Microsoft PowerPoint?

 

If not, what is recommended as the most suitable export format from Animate to be used in Microsoft PowerPoint?

hi,

 

NO I don't think SWF files can be imported in Powerpoint. But you could export your Animate file to a MOVIE, and then you can load that into Powerpoint. An animated GIF might also be another option,

 

Hope that helps!
