Hi,

I am currently creating some illustrations for a colleague. He will will paste the different illustrations in a PowerPoint and print it in A0 -my colleague doesn't have Illustrator-.

My question is: what is the best format to export the illustrations so when he pastes them in the PowerPoint and prints them in A0, the resolution is not compromised?

Thanks a lot in advance for your help!

    Hi Jacob and Monika,

    Thanks a lot for your help. I exported the images as .wmf and he has been able to paste them in PowerPoint, print them in A0 and keep the images sharp.

    Regards

    Exporting the images as .wrmf really worked. However, I am encountering a setback at the moment. When my colleague opens the PPT, the images are headless and cropped in his screen. In my computer, the screen are just fine. Do you know what could be causing this?

    Thanks a lot again!

    In case it's a current version: PDF.

    Not paste it in, but import or place it.

    But why doesn't he print it directly from PDF in the first place?

    Juliet,

    How about .wmf (WMF, Windows Meta File) or .emf (EMF, Enhanced Meta File)?
