WinWord: How to Embed a Microsoft PowerPoint Slide
This article was previously published under Q88000
This article describes how to embed a slide from version 3.0 or later of
Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows into a Microsoft Word for Windows
document using the Clipboard.
To embed a slide from PowerPoint for Windows, you must be in slide
sorter view. In any other view, PowerPoint copies the information to
the Clipboard in picture format only. When you choose Paste Special
from the Edit menu in Word for Windows, the source is listed as
Unknown.
To correctly embed a slide from version 3.0 or later of Microsoft
PowerPoint for Windows into a Microsoft Word for Windows document, use
the following steps:
- In PowerPoint for Windows, click Slide Sorter on the View menu
to display the presentation slides in Slide Sorter view.
- Select the slide you want to embed in your Word for Windows
document.
- On the Edit menu, click Copy.
- Switch to Word for Windows. Open the document in which you want to
embed the PowerPoint slide.
- Position the insertion point where you want to embed the slide.
- On the Edit menu, click Paste Special. Under Data Type, select
PowerPoint Slide Object, and then click OK.
The selected slide is now embedded. If you want to edit the slide
in PowerPoint, double-click the embedded slide.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
