This article was previously published under Q176389



SYMPTOMS
When you save to Windows Metafile in Microsoft PowerPoint 7.0, you have an option box that enables you to select whether you want to embed TrueType fonts. In PowerPoint 4.0 and PowerPoint 97, the Embed TrueType option box is unavailable (dimmed).



CAUSE
This option box should not be available in PowerPoint 7.0. This command does not embed TrueType fonts when you save to Windows Metafiles because Windows Metafiles do not use font embedding.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected in Microsoft PowerPoint 97.
