powerpoint 2007 not displaying correctly in viewer

[Guest]

I have created a powerpoint 2007 presenation that plays flawlessly in any
computer with powepoint 2007. However when played with powerpoint viewer
2007 it increases the font size of my text to the point that it wraps over to
another line or doesn't display at all. I have tried changine the resolution
size and not publishing to a cd. Nothing has worked. Any suggestions?

Try updating your video card driver and let us know if it solves the issue.

In addition to what Austin said: Do you experience those problems on the
same computer, where the presentation plays flawlessly with the full version
of PowerPoint? Or do the problems occur on another computer? If so, there
could be a problem with missing fonts. To solve that, either embed the fonts
into the presentation or install them on the other computer.

Best regards,
Ute

I have updated drivers. This does not resolve the issue. The problem even
occurs when play the file with powerpoint viewer 2007 on the same computer
with Powerpoint 2007. Runs flawlessly when ran from powerpoint 2007 and all
kind of text wrapping problems when running the exact same file with
Powerpoint Viewer 2007.

The problem occurs even when using the same computer. Runs great in the full
version and wraps text to additional lines when run with powerpoint viewer
2007. Thanks for your help!

I would try this:

PowerPoint 2007 text editing slow, text cut off, print, crash problems

I took a close look at my font I was using when the problem occurred and
noticed that the font was the same each time the problem occurred. The font
causing the problem was Mercurius Script MT Bold. I changed the font to
several other true type fonts and problem solved. I don't understand why the
full version of Powerpoint would run great and the viewer would not but I'm
just happy it works. Thank you all for your help!
