PowerPoint:
That issue caught me in PowerPoint 2007 but I don't think it happens in PowerPoint 2003. It must be a new 'feature'. To insert a picture you need to click on the little image in the middle of the PP screen. there's a ToolTip that says "Insert Picture From File". If you don't insert your picture this way you get the image no-display that you described.

Sorry, I can't help with the PDF error.

Hi guys,
I have an urgent requriement to finish some training presentations and I am having trouble with some embedded files. 1. I embedded some files into an MS Powerpoint 2003 document. The files open just fine in Normal view, but when the file is viewed in Sl;ideshow view the links do not open. Help! 2. I also embedded some files into a PDF document. They are other PDF docs. The links work fine for me on my laptop but when upload them to someone else, the links do not work. The attachments show correctly in the Attachments list and open the correct files. But the links in the document do not work. Your words of comfort and experience would be very appreciated. Ilana
