PowerPoint Viewer 2003

Hello All

When try to open a ppt file with PP viewer 2003 the text in slides
disappears and the slides are blank.
The slides have only the colors and the template of ppt file but not the text.
Please for your help?

Maybe you don't have the fonts from the presentation on your PC and they're
not embedded in the presentation.

Was the file actually created in PPT 2007 and then saved as 97-2003 format?
If so, it's a known issue. Download and install the latest Viewer -- it
should display the stuff properly.

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
for the new Viewer.

Alternatively, in 2003 use File | Save As | HTML and then open the HTML file
and File | Save As | PowerPoint. This is also known as "round tripping," and
it weeds out some of the weird stuff that causes these display issues.
