Faded Slide Background

C

This is for PPT XP. We used a slide template for a dozen comple
presentations, and used them in conjunction with Producer. In Produce
1.1, the templates worked great. Now in Producer 2003, the image-base
background became dark and clear, which ruins our presentations
appearance. I discovered through these forums that it is the Colo
Scheme background color that causes the color wash-out. Producer 200
does not pay attention to that, so the PPT slides look different i
powerpoint when compared to Producer. Aside from cursing Microsoft
what can I do to "disable" the background color, or at least prevent i
from changing the appearance of the image?

For reference, I believe it is a Design Template that comes package
with PPT XP. It is called textured.pot. If you look at the slid
background, it is using an image that is much darker than appears i
PPT because of the background color in Color Schemes.

Thanks very much for any help..

Only thing I know to do for this is to export a blank slide as an image,
then reimport that image onto your slide master in PPT. You may need to
spend some time in an image editor if the image really does have
transparency or save as a JPG, which doesn't support transparency.

You might also get better information posting this in the Producer
newsgroup.

will get you there via the web.

Well, now that I'm home on a different newsreader, I can see the
original post.

Here's the reply I gave on Nov. 20. Is it not showing up on the exceltip
interface? And did you try posting in the Producer newsgroup?
