Help! I have a Presentation that uses Freehand 591 in selected areas. I
packaged on a CD, have a password for modifying, Files are included by
default, and need to send it to people who have different computers and
versions. All are windows 98 2000 or XP. When they open the CD, they click
for rview, then for read only and then when it opens the Freehand 591 font
has been changed to another font and is a mess.

I thought that since Freehand was on my PowerPoint, the file for that font
would automatically be packaged and everyone could read it. Can someone
please help or I am going to have hours this weekend changing to something
else that won't be nearly as nice!

Thanks!

Thanks Steve,

I discovered that wonderful little font changing tool today. Its very easy.
I'm thinking about using Brush Script MT. Do you know off hand if that is
very common? I hate to use arial or another plain script for aesthetic
reasons, but I also don't want problems again if someone doesn't have that
font.

Now I just have to figure out how to package so everyone can open. What I've
done so far doesn't work, but I think because it was created in office 2007,
that whoever is trying to open the Presentation (a password to modify/Read
only file), needs to have downloaded the office 2007 compatibility file which
has a link in the package. Does that sound right?

Have a great weekend!

Amy
