PP Viewer

[Guest]

Can pp viewer presentations be modified by users to whom the file is sent?

Not through the viewer, but if they have PowerPoint installed the file can
be opened and edited.

But just save it with a modify password, and you'll get rid of most of that.
I say "most" because I think that anything you send out can ultimately be
opened,
copied, etc. in some way. But the password, together with the viewer, and
you might a well throw in the PPS format (save as Show rather than
Presentation)
will stop "non-professionals."

But bear in mind that it'll also prevent anyone with PPT 2000 and earlier or
Viewer 97 from opening/viewing the files at all.

If that's not an issue ... well ... then it's not an issue. ;-)
