508 Compliance in Power Point

I have a client who needs their Power Point presentation to be 508 Compliant. I know how to check it as a PDF in Acrobat Reader, but have had little luck in Powerpoint. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jessica

Hi jeska;

Across the board I'm afraid Mac Office offers virtually nothing in the way
of Section 508 compliance features... Especially since the programs are not
classified as "web design applications". Win Office is a little more
inclusive, but not by much.

Glenna Shaw's "The Incredible Accessible Presentation" has a lot of good info:
