Problem with hyperlinks going from PPT to PDF

I have a 6 slide presentation that has hyperlink buttons to move between
slides. The hyperlinks all work properly in PPT but when I save as a pdf
using the Microsft PDF add-in, the links are not correct in the pdf. The
links are active in the pdf but are one slide off (i.e. instead of taking the
user to the desired page, it takes the user one slide further).

Any thoughts or suggestions as to what could be happening??

Ah, you found us. Turn around and let us knock all that MacDust off you and
then we can get to work. <g>

If the presentation has no proprietary info and is no more than a few
megabytes, I'd be happy to have a look. Email to steve at-sign pptools dot com
(include an example PDF too if you like)
 
And it turns out that the PDFs work fine in Reader 7 but misbehave in Reader 6
(and make Acrobat 6 toss errors about being unable to read the file if you try to
edit the links to see what's up).

Whether that points to a bug in Reader 6 or in PPT 2007's PDF save add-in I don't
know. But it's good to remember in any case.
