When I saved a 2007 powerpoint 12 file on my laptop, I wanted to try it on my
office 2003 but it wouldnt open and they clearly didnt understand each other
and the themes clearly arent compatible
 
I would highly suggest to save the files in ppt 12 in the 97-2003 file
format (ppt) instead of installing the "twinpack" on another machine.
The "twinpack" is beta as well and you might want to keep it off a
production machine.

There's a compatibility pack you can install for Office 2003 products.

You'll want both the file format awareness update and the compatibility
pack.
