Microsoft® PowerPoint® Viewer 97
The Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer 97
allows people who use Microsoft PowerPoint to share their
presentations with users who do not have PowerPoint. This
product also allows users who wish to post full fidelity
PowerPoint presentations on the Internet to expand their
online audience to people who might not have PowerPoint.
The PowerPoint Viewer allows users who do not have
Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows® to view and print
PowerPoint presentations, but it does not allow them to
edit PowerPoint presentations.
We encourage you to copy and distribute
PowerPoint Viewer to your friends and co-workers or post
it on public electronic bulletin boards.
