upload breeze ppt into Sharestream

As long as you don't have to make any changes to the breeze-ified PowerPoint, you can upload it directly into Sharestream as long as you make the loading htm file named index.


  1. In Breeze download content, download the output file


  2. Extract it into a folder with the same name.


  3. Go into that extracted folder,


  4. and rename the opening htm file


  5. "index", then go back to downloads


  6. and delete the original zip file


  7. Zip the folder


  8. And append the standard naming convention to it. 


  9. This can now be uploaded as an asset into Sharestream

See this and other shortcuts here.

Except the tool is broken, even after you install the updates that's supposed to fix it.

So, use Google Slides.
