Default Help: Office 2007 truncates right edge of picture when inserting wmf

Hi everyone!

I've got a very strange problem: I've got a logo in wmf format. When I
insert it into a slide in PPT 2003, everything is allright with it.

However, if I insert it in PPT 2007, the right edge gets truncated for
about 10 or 20 pixels. This happens, no matter wheather I insert it
through the clipboard as a copy from PPT 2003 or wheater I insert it
directly as an image choosing Insert > Picture from the ribbon. (It
shows correctly in the lefthand thumbnail sidebar inside PPT 2007,
though...)

Any ideas as to why the image gets truncated?

Kind regards,

Christian

Hi Christian,

You many want to use the link below to also post this in the
MS Office Powerpoint discussion group.

You may want to mention there the source program for that particular graphic and if you have the same problem if you right click on
the picture and choose 'change picture' with the replacement picture, then repeat that process and reselect your logo as the 'new'
picture.

Hi Christian

As it shows correctly in the thumbnails I would give this a try:

Hi all,

Thank you for your suggestions. Unfortunately, they didn't solve the
problem. I've now re-opened this topic at microsoft.public.powerpoint.

Thanks again.

Kind regards,

Christian
