Microsoft Office products such as Word, PowerPoint, an Publisher have unique ways of handling graphics and fonts that are very different from traditional page layout programs like Quark XPress and Adobe InDesign.

Microsoft PowerPoint's transparency feature used to alter colors, images, and graphics causes PDF and printing difficulties. The following will help you avoid this industry-known problem at file creation.

We suggest avoiding the transparency feature whenever possible. Instead, select a different color from the color palette to adjust colors.

If you have used the transparency feature, please submit the native PowerPoint file through our upload files page.
