The problem
Why has your presentation gotten so heavy?
The moment a presentation embeds a demo video, full-page photos or custom fonts, it leaves the "document" category: 200 MB for a polished pitch, several gigabytes for a launch keynote — against an attachment capped at 20-25 MB.
The workarounds damage precisely what makes the impact: compressing the media pixelates your videos in full screen; exporting to PDF kills animations, transitions and videos; pulling the media out and sending it separately guarantees a broken link on the big day.
The presentation has to arrive whole, ready to project. TransferNow sends it as is, free up to 5 GB.

The solutions
Four ways to send a heavy presentation
Depending on whether the recipient needs to present, edit or just read, the options are not equal. An honest comparison.
| Method | Max size | Quality | For the recipient |
|---|---|---|---|
| TransferNow (dedicated transfer)Recommended | 5 GB free · 500 GB with an account | Complete file: videos, animations, fonts | One click, no account |
| Compress the embedded media | Weight divided by 2 to 5 | Videos and images degraded on screen | Attachment if reduced enough |
| Export to PDF | Weight sharply reduced | Animations, transitions and videos lost | Read-only |
| Online slides (shared links) | Depends on the platform | Formatting sometimes altered on import | Account often required to edit |
The dedicated transfer: the presentation, ready to project
The file leaves whole — embedded videos, embedded fonts, animations. The recipient opens it in PowerPoint or Keynote exactly as you rehearsed it. Add the source videos to the same transfer if needed.
Media compression: the demo effect, ruined
Shrinking the embedded videos works wonders on the weight… and wreaks havoc in full-screen projection. If the presentation has to convince, its media deserves its resolution.
The PDF export: a handout, not a presentation
PDF is perfect for archiving or circulating the deck afterwards. But it freezes everything: no more animations, no more videos, no more transitions. Keep it for reading, never for the big day.
Online slides: convenient, with surprises
Importing a PPTX into an online slides tool can shift fonts and layouts. Fine for co-editing, risky for delivering a pixel-perfect presentation.
