Load/save Excel and Word files?

May 3, 2012 8:39 AM

You mean to tell me that we cannot store Excel or Word documents in our teaching. It's not showing as an acceptable file type; yet Power Point files are?

    Word and Excel files have never been supported in the Flash Player or Adobe Connect. PPT files are supported because they get converted to Flash files by the server, using the Adobe Presenter conversion engine. If you want to share a Word or Excel file you can do so through screen sharing or you can convert them to a PDF and upload them to the share pod.

    Thanks! I recently purchased Adobe Acrobat X in hopes of an easy way to convert Excel files to Pdf but not having much luck doing it simply. It captures a portion of a large Excel file display but not all of it. Guess I have to read a manual somewhere!

    The print to PDF feature should output the same as if you printed to a physical paper. You may just need to set your print area in Excel to accomodate the entire worksheet.
