Everything you created remains intact and viewable because Highlight+ uses standard PowerPoint objects.
You simply lose the ability to create new Highlight+ elements or edit existing ones.
Yes — but simple Appear and Disappear animations produce the cleanest results.
Other PowerPoint animation effects may reveal visual artifacts due to how PowerPoint renders it's native highlight elements during animated transitions.
PowerPoint does not print native ink highlights reliably; it often substitutes faded shapes or inaccurate output. Highlight+ includes its own Save to PDF feature so highlights print the way they were intended to look.
That Save to PDF feature is available even without an active paid license.
Yes — anyone on PowerPoint 2016 or later can view your highlighted slides.
Highlight+ uses PowerPoint’s native Ink tools, so highlights are preserved in shared files. This means, anyone using PowerPoint 2016 or later (including Microsoft 365) can view your highlights.
However, editing those highlights requires an active Highlight+ license.
Scrub removes the common items most likely to be overlooked before exchange.
• Speaker notes
• Comments
• Hidden slides
• Embedded chart data (charts are converted to static images)
• Animations
• Transitions
As a final step, Scrub can also run PowerPoint’s built-in Inspect Document feature.
Scrub turns a scattered manual review into one repeatable disclosure-prep step.
Final Exchange creates a disclosure-ready PowerPoint file that is much harder to repurpose.
Saving to PDF is not the same thing; PDFs can often be converted back into editable slides or otherwise reused more easily than people assume.
Final Exchange creates a separate PowerPoint file in which each slide is converted into a static image.
If needed, animated slides can be converted into embedded video so the sequence still plays without exposing the underlying objects.
The result is a file people can review, but one that is significantly more difficult to edit or repurpose.
