I must edit PPT presentations in either PPT 2002 or PPT 2007. A number of the
presentations have box and line objects. I have two problems:

1. There is a slight difference between the positioning of some lines aand
boxes in the two programs. This becomes important when I am tracing lines or
have colored boxes inside other objects.

Hm ... at some point (and I'm wondering if it was between 2002 and 2003?) the
way lines are drawn around objects changed.

You can check this easily:

Draw two rectangles side by side. Give one a really thick outline, the other
none. Zoom in on the corner where the two rectangles abut and note whether the
outline sits half in and half outside the rectange or entirely outside. In 2003
it's split in/out.
