    Have you taken these troubleshooting steps:
    - Is the font in question a truetype or postscript?
    - Assuming it is a truetype font, have you saved the presentation with the
    font embedded? Note: if opening as editable file in 2003 this may trigger a
    warning message and allow to be opened as read-only.
    - Must you use the offending font? Can the presentation use an alternate
    font that does not cause these problems?

    Just a few thoughts.
