I have a project my foreign language class that is supposed to be due tomorrow, it's a PowerPoint slideshow. It has to be presented with no hesitations, stuttering, or forgetting words/pronunciations (basically flawlessly).
This all wouldn't be a problem except for the fact I have very bad social anxiety even when I'm not under pressure (my doc is waiting for some test results before he gives me any SSRI's or Benzodiazepines). I physically and mentally won't be able to present it.
So to get the point; we have to bring the .PPTX or .PPT file(s) (I run OS X) in to class on a flash drive to run it off her computer to be projected. I need way to make the file corrupted so that Powerpoint will display an error when it's attempting to open it.
I'm going to be doing the project but the corruption will just be an excuse so I don't have to present it and so I can email her the working file so that she can either dismiss presentation aspect or give me until Monday.
If you have any ideas or suggestions please let me know, guys.

Open the .PDF in TextEdit and just delete a bunch of words.

Just like xxImAKilla said, Open it up in Notepad and delete a load of codes.

Note that this strategy of corruption works with [i]any[/y] Microsoft file (doc,docx,ppt,pub etc). I would know, I've had to sneakily get extensions many times in my life
