In my slides I have a few shapes covering other content. Those shapes have a "Disappear" animation on them and are supposed to hide information such that the audience can think about it first.

Note: It's not (or at least not easily) possible for me to let the relevant information "Appear" instead of hiding it.

When I export my slides as PDF, all those blocking-shapes are still in the PDF, although they have a "Disappear" animation. So far, I needed to manually delete all of those blocking-shapes, export as PDF and Ctrl + Z until all shapes are back.

Is there a better way to do it? For example by marking certain shapes to be hidden in the PDF?

I have a free add-in that might help:

Creating Teacher / Student editions of presentations http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ01017_Creating_Teacher_-_Student_editions_of_presentations.htm

Since it doesn't use animation (it makes shapes visible or invisible as needed instead), the results should export to PDF the way you expect them to.
