PowerPoint 2007 Notes View + grayscale = blank PDFs

[Bruce Kimball]

Hi, Using PowerPoint 2007, whenever I try to create a PDF using Notes View
and in grayscale, the results are all blank pages. A PDF is created, but
every page is blank. I've tried this with several different types of
presentations, and asked our MIS department to try it also. All have the same
result. I can't use the PDF plug in because it doesn't allow a grayscale
selection. All of these files convert fine using PowerPoint 2003.

This is the Mac area. You'll want to post this again to the plain old
PowerPoint section (which is really more the Windows PPT area).

When you do that, also include a bit more information:

How are you creating the PDF? Using the free add-in supplied by MS, Adobe
Acrobat or some other software?

If Acrobat/Other, what version?

What exact steps do you follow to create the PDF?

Thanks. You're right. I discovered it was the wrong group after posting.
Somehow I was thrown out of my posting as I started, and landed in the Mac
group. Sorry.
