Help converting powerpoint to html

I'm trying to convert my Powerpoint presentation into an
html document so I can put it on my website. I can do
this succesfully but the problem is that once I upload it
some of the text alignment and font sizes are altered,
some to the extent that they go off the screen and I
cannot read what's in the text boxes. Here's what I
mean: http://www.lifecoaches.org/webpresentation.html.
Please take a look at that and post any
suggestions/advice you might have so I can fix my
problem.
 
I would put your logo on the Master Page, rather than every slide. I would make my placeholders a little smaller than the full width of the slide, some extend over the edges, and are probably the reason when converted to html exceed the page margins.

Putting images, text right to the edge of the slide is not a good idea. Hopefully your audience knows that they have to mouse click or press enter for anything to appear. Some automatic transitions would make, in my estimation a better presentation.

If you check your slides 11, 12, 15, 16, 21, 22, & 23, you will find that the information in the text boxes extends outside the boundaries of the slide.

Thank you for your response. First of all, the logo is
on the master page. Secondly, none of the place holders
extend over the edges it's just that when I convery my
powerpoint document into html form it changes the
position of the text and sometimes the size and alignment
as well! I do not understand why it does this because it
all fits perfectly on the page and looks fine when I view
the powerpoint offline. You are correct in that a lot of
the text/images that go off of the screen are ones I
placed close to the edge, and it is unfortunate to hear
that I would have to re-arange all of those closer to the
middle of the screen in order for the powerpoint to work,
but some of the problem text/images that go off the
screen are pretty close to the middle. And there are
some that are right in the middle AND middle aligned that
have changed in font size and placement. This I do not
understand and am still looking for an answer for.
Again, thanks for your response, but it does not solve
all of my problems.

Can you put the PPT file itself online where we can download it?
My guess is that font substitution is at the root of a lot of these
problems.
In fact, try this:

Make a copy of the presentation under a new name
Use Format, Replace fonts to change all of your fonts to Arial or
TimesNewRoman as appropriate.
We'll deal with the bullets later if need be.
Save that, convert it to HTML and see how it works.
