converting 2007 pptx into 2003 ppt without text changing to images

[Rhysickle]

Due to the fact that default styles and master template in powerpoint2007 use
a lot of word art and text effects, when these are converted to ppt 2003
files the text is converted to images.

I have followed the help instructions on removing all the text effects, but
still everytime I try and save as 2003 it still converts the text to images.

Any idea why?

Thanks

Rhys

PS
A note to microsoft - who's idea was it to make converting text to images
the default behaviour. This is an example of a really, really stupid product
feature which goes contrary to what any sensible person would want (i.e.
keeping the text editable across versions)
