PowerPoint Viewer & Rotated Screen for Kiosk

[Tyler T]

I have a kiosk on which I wish to use PowerPoint Viewer. I have a number of
PowerPoint presentations to show. The Kiosk is setup in Portrait mode
(Screen rotated 90 degrees) but the Viewer displays the presentation in
landscape mode and rotates it back making it difficult to view the
presentations. I have seen postings on this forum stating that I could
rotate the images, export them and then re-import the images, but there are
quite a few presentations. Does anybody have other recommendations?

Which version of PowerPoint viewer are you using? I tried using PowerPoint
Viewer that comes with PowerPoint 2007 and found that it obeys the portrait
mode screen that was created through NVIDIA control panel.

Chirag,

I am using the PowerPoint 2007 Viewer 2007 also, but it rotates back to
landscape even though the screen is rotated through Windows 90 degrees to fit
the portraint orientation. It's a Samsung touchscreen flat panel display
rotated to fit a Kiosk.

Thanks,
Tyler
