Printing of individual slides of an animation slide
I'm running Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003 on Microsoft Windows XP Professional. There is a need for printing individual slides of an animation slide, i.e. the view that is presented after each mouse click while running the presentation.

Today I was given a ppt2003 file created at a corporation that uses a special "corporate identity" font. I found that upon opening it on my ppt2003 machine (without that font) I got a msg, something like "contains a read only embedded font, no editing allowed". In fact it was true; I could not edit the file in any way whatsoever. I could edit it freely if I used one of the conpany's ...

Remember transparency sheets/overhead projectors?
I'm trying to decide the best way to format a PP presentation. My concept comes from the old age of transparency sheets and overheads. I want to start with one image and then layer several new images on top of that image throughout the slideshow. (Think expanding circles with text in each one.) In an ideal world, text explaining the visual would also come on to the screen in some sort of...

copying music files
I have made a power point presentation on Powerpoint 2002. The music plays on my computer. I have copied it to a cd and tried showing it on a few other computers. The slides show fine but the music won't play even though the icon is there. I have set the "link sound with file size greater than..." to 50,000 kb and that doesn't change things. What else do I need to do? The program was ins...

My Data Point and Label are hidden -- why?
I am working with a bubble chart -- all is well, except for one data point. It is not displayed. It appears in the drop down box as a data point, along with its label -- I can select it and format it. But it won't display -- nor will its data label. If I move it to the secondary axis, it displays -- move it back to primary, and both (point / label) are hidden. Even worse -- if I zoo...
