PPT2000: Embedded Fonts Lost When Upgrading 4.0 and 7.0 Presentations

ID: Q198346

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 For Windows

SUMMARY

The text in a presentation created in an earlier version of PowerPoint looks fine until the presentation has been saved in a PowerPoint 2000 file format. When the upgraded file is opened again, text that was formatted using an embedded font will no longer look the same if the font is not installed on the system.

MORE INFORMATION

The PowerPoint 2000 file format will only accept Unicode fonts. Because fonts embedded in PowerPoint 4.0 and 95 presentations are ANSI fonts they are removed from the presentation when you save it in the PowerPoint 2000 file format.
