Hi,

I did post this problem already with no luck...

On some computers, mostly laptops as I've been able to see, there's a
bug in the image export of powerpoint.

I've been able to reproduce the problem on a recent vaio with winXp
and Powerpoint 2000, and on two very recent Dell laptops with winXP
and office XP.

Here's a sample image of what I get :

As you can see, the texts are not antialiased properly, to say the
least...

Note that I've played with different combinations of font smoothing in
the display control panel, and with different fonts, with absolutely
no effect. The image format is not guilty as well as png is a lossless
format...

Any thoughts ?
