PowerPoint Import Error

Jul 18, 2019

Hi all!

I have been tasked with updating some old content from PowerPoint and Presenter into Storyline.

When importing from PowerPoint I receive the attached error message. I have reviewed a number of threads here however, I've not seen an error message the same as this nor have any of the 'fixes' worked for me.

Could anyone in the brains trust decipher this message and what it means?

And, more importantly, how do I work around it?

 

TIA.

Hi there, Michael!

I'm sorry you're seeing that error, and I'm happy to lend a hand. There are a couple of reasons why PowerPoint could fail during import – we've outlined them along with some troubleshooting steps to try in this article!

If everything checks out, can you help us with:

  • Are you able to open the PowerPoint file on its own? 
  • Would you mind sharing a troublesome file for testing? Here's the link to share your PowerPoint file privately with our Support Engineers! They'll take a closer look and let you know what they find!
