Readme Notes about the PowerPoint Viewer

This PowerPoint Viewer is a 16-bit application 
based on the PowerPoint 4.0 Viewer.  While it 
runs on either Windows 3.1 or Windows 95 and 
opens files from any current or previous version of
PowerPoint, there are a few features of PowerPoint for 
Windows 95 it does not support.  We suggest you run
through your file using the Viewer and make any 
adjustments you might wish to make prior to your actual
presentation.

*  Embedded Fonts.  If you save a file with embedded fonts
in PowerPoint for Windows 95, the Viewer will not 
display those fonts unless the font is available on the
system on which you are viewing the file.  You may want
to check that the  fonts in your presentation are 
installed on the system, especially if you are using
an unusual font in your presentation.

*  Gradient fills.  PowerPoint for Windows 95 has 
support for two color shaded fills.  The PowerPoint Viewer
will display those fills as a single color to black 
gradient fill.

*  Semi-transparent fills and shadows.  The Viewer will
display the appropriate solid color fill or shadow.

*  Textured fills.  Will fill the object with the default
color scheme color.

*  Background textures.  No background is displayed.

*  Extended Animation Effects.  If you applied bulleted
list text builds, they will be displayed.  Other types
of builds are ignored.

*  Interactive settings.  Interactive settings are 
not available in the Viewer.
