Good afternoon,

I am completely stuck on how to import my custom shapes to be viewed in the shapes library of powerpoint.

Originally I had created a selection of custom shapes from illustrator and saved them to EMP format.

As I import and ungroup them in Powerpoint 2007 they work great (change the size, colour etc) but I couldnt see a way to save them in the shapes section for future use.

I would like it so several people in the office could use my theme (background,colours, bullet points already sorted) and select these custom shapes for our branded presentations

A user from another forum told me that I had to make a custom symbol catalog, and made me follow the steps on the links below:

Which I have done successfully and now have 'custom symbol catalog' in Autodesk...... But how do you get this catalog into powerpoint?? I have about 30 symbols waiting to be inserted into it..

Am I going into the wrong direction?

I would be very grateful if somebody could find the answer - thank you!
