I have a problem when trying to view secondary level bulletpoints in
Powerpoint Viewer 2007. The bullets display correctly when viewed in
Powerpoint 2007 but when the slideshow is viewed in PPTV the
indentation is removed and the secondary level points are decreased to
line up with the higher level. I have embedded all true type fonts.

Is there a known solution to this problem? The bullets are positioned
using the margin markers with the slide ruler.

Thanks.

Here's the bad news...

2007 Viewer is pretty much 2003 viewer with a converter added.

If you have adjusted INDIVIDUAL LINES of a para using the indent ruler then
this is something that cannot be done in 2003 and the viewer being basically
2003 in disguise will make its best shot ie both lines the same.

You would need to set genuine second level indents in 2007 by pressing tab
after enter for a new line. You can adjust the indents on the master.

You should then find all will be well.

Hope that makes sense and helps.
