Are You Having Trouble Viewing the PowerPoint?
I use Microsoft True Type fonts in most of my lessons. These are found in
Microsoft Office 2007. If this PowerPoint seems to be jumbled and incorrectly
formatted, it is because your computer has substituted a larger font (probably
Arial) instead of Calibri. To fix this, simply download PowerPoint Viewer 2007
from Microsoft. This is a legitimate, free download from Microsoft and it allows
all Microsoft Office applications to view the True Type fonts. The link below will
take you directly to the PowerPoint Viewer download page. It will only take a
minute to download the file.
