We are getting intermittent slide playback issues when we add text or graphics to solid color backgrounds. Sometimes the presentation will play through normally but at other times, we have slides not displayed, displayed without the background, displayed with text in a different font than the font used in creation. This happens whether the presentation has been saved in PPT format normally or whether it has been saved in a folder as a ppt in the Pack & Go option on PowerPoint2000. We have selected the option to embed the fonts, but we still have the problem.
If no text is added, the graphic backgrounds play normally.
Our playback device is Linux-based and has PowerPoint Viewer 97 loaded on it.
