font changes when playing from CD

L

ldbarkman

I have copied a slide show to a CD to be played on other computers. When I
play it, some of the fonts have changed to arial. Is there any way I could
prevent this? I have no idea if this is possible but perhaps...
1. I could save the font I want use on the CD with the slide show so that it
will work regardless of whether the computer has the font installed.
2. Would making an autorrun CD help?

Embed the fonts in the presentation. File|Save As. Click the Tools button,
choose Save Options, and tick the box to embed the fonts.

Your font may or may not be embeddable, though. For more information, see
