It is only a very simple problem of proprietary font. Get a look at the font you are using in MS Powerpoint (which is in my opinion inferior to Impress). Then install the font you have been using under OpenOffice.org. If you are using version 1.1.3 is very easy, select File>Autopilot>Install fonts from the web And you select the fonts you want to install from a list, download and install. Eventually, you can download the font from MS and install them on your system in order to enable all the application and not only Openoffice.org to use them. Concerning drawing diagrams, I do not understand your problem Could you be more specific? I have been drawing diagrams and not had any problem. Be more specific and we will probably be able to help you. If you need specific Openoffice.org help, subscribe with the Openoffice.org user mailing list at http://www.openoffice.org. For everybody's information, Openoffice.org 1.1.3 came out top in a round test among all office suite available on the market conducted by Computer Shopper UK ( 5 star). It is on December 2004 issue. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
