[R-SIG-Mac]When is PDF not PDF?

[rozen]

Would not be the best way to use latex+pdfscreen and to forget this

I guess that micro$oft made a bad port of pdf (Adobe product) in 
powerpoint.

One way is to convert your pdf to a micro$ft format using 
graphicconverter for example and to discover it works perfectly ;-)
