randomly changing fonts on graphics drawn in ppt

[Barbara522]

Good afternoon,

I have been struggling with one ducment that has started changing it's fonts
at will! It was built from other documents that are not having the same
issue. It is a 248 page doc in Spanish (some still in English - they are
going 'bad' as well). The only pages that are changing are the graphics that
have been drawn in ppt. It is changing them from Arial to Symbols or
freehand script but it is only changing some of the text boxes on the slides.
I have fixed it 2x already replaced the fonts - renamed it - loaded Office
2007 on PC (was Office Professional XP on PC). Even after changing it,
saving and ghosting - the ghosted copy comes up looking like Greek. The
other docs that contain these slides are fine for now. Help!! (please)

Thank you,
Barbara

Barbara,

Sometimes slides go corrupt and the only (known) solution is to delete and
re-create them.

But before resorting to that, try "round-tripping" your presentation. Sometimes
that fixes minor corruption problems before they become major ones.
