The biggest problem is that for some reason it does not use the new equation
editor. Word 2007 includes it so it is strange that Powerpoint 2007 does not. Even worse, equations created in older version of Powerpoint do not work correctly. They have to be manually recreated.

The new equation editor is dedicated to Word 2007. PPT doesn't have it,
because it's integrated into Word and not a separate program like the previous equation editor. Maybe the next version of PPT will get it? Of course, you can make your equation in Word and paste it into PPT. Which beta version are you using? The release version of PowerPoint 2007 does NOT have that problem with old equations anymore.

I am using the RTM version and I am having horrible problems with equations
created originally using one of the Powerpoint versions in the 1990s. They look cut off so that not all of the equation shows. When I double click to edit I can see the equation is right. But then closing the equation editor the equation box closes down to microscopic size and there is only a fragment of the equation visible. I have tried to copy the equation and paste, but that doesnt work either. Its a serious problem because I cannot show any of my older presentations. It seems to work with equations created in Powerpoint 2003, however. "Patrick Schmid [MVP]" wrote in message ... The new equation editor is dedicated to Word 2007.

I have tried to copy the equation and paste, but that doesnt work either. Its a serious problem because I cannot show any of my older presentations. I found a workaround for this in an earlier beta version; it involves copying the equation to the clipboard then pasting back in, I think it was, EMF format. I don't remember the specific, but in the spirit of "Those who don't remember the past are condemned to repeat it" I'd be happy to have another go at it if you'd like to email me an example file. One or two slides is plenty; pop the text from this message into the body of the email, attach the PPT and email to steve at-sign pptools dot com It seems to work with equations created in Powerpoint 2003, however.

So far I'm getting slow performance for slides with by-word or by-letter
animation. It's like my computer is chocking for more power. No such problem with PowerPoint 2003. "Bobby Z" wrote in message ... Does anyone have any information on PPT2007? Pros & Cons. What are some of the neat new features? What was left out that should have been included? |

Try reducing your hardware acceleration.

No changes at all. To explain further, this is what happened:
1) The slide shows up 2) Performance very slow. Everything moves is slow motion 3) After a few seconds (10 seconds or more, depending on the length of the paragraph), everything goes back to normal. Tried creating a new presentation on another computer. Same problem. One is using ATI Radeon 9700 and another one is ATI Radeon X1300. Thanks. "Patrick Schmid [MVP]" wrote in message ...
