Hey Peter,

Also keep in mind that Microsoft released a 32-bit and a 64-bit version of Office 2010. Microsoft recommends installing the 32-bit version. Articulate Presenter '09 will only work with the 32-bit version. Presenter '09 also will not work with the Click To Run version of PowerPoint 2010. For more information, please review the following article:

It's probably too late in your case, Peter, but I'm suddenly seeing some font discrepancies between a lesson that was developed half in Office 2007 and half in Office 2010. (Forced upgrade came in the interim.) Specifically, 18-point type previews satisfactorily, but then blows up to 44-point after publishing; alignment also shifts from left-justified to center. My solution was to rebuild the slides, which seem to be stable, but now I have a new problem with the "Translucency-Annotations" issue that's docomented elsewhere on this forum.
