Hi Mark
I don't use a Mac so don't know if this is going to help at all but are
you
embedding the fonts? If not, are the fonts you are using installed on the
PC? If the font isn't present on the target machine, powerpoint replaces
it
with times new roman or arial which can cause horrible display issues. One
way to check is on the PC go to home tab -> replace (way over on the right
hand side) -> replace fonts -> do any of the fonts have a question mark
next
to them? If so, they aren't installed on that machine.
I hope that helps,
Lucy
