Yeah, currently we use the export to PowerPoint a lot, and we use a macro to remove all the hyperlinks that are automatically embedded.

 

However, it would be great if it is possible to export to PowerPoint without those hyperlinks embedded, or an option somewhere to enable/disable this.

Yep. I saw that macro as well, but we're trying to generate decks for non-technical folks. I can't have them going in and running...

 

    Dim slide As slide
    Dim index As Long
    Dim counter As Long
    counter = 0
    For Each slide In ActivePresentation.Slides
        For index = slide.Hyperlinks.Count To 1 Step -1
            slide.Hyperlinks(index).Delete
            counter = counter + 1
        Next index
    Next slide
    MsgBox ("Removed " + CStr(counter) + " links")

    I totally agree with you. Macros are already quite technical for non-technical folks!
