Just moved to Office 2004 and I have the annoying bug with PowerPoint 2004 where it tells me that several Asian fonts are missing every time I open a new presentation. I really don't want to reinstall or activate these fonts (which is the solution MacWorld and others advocate). Has anyone found a better solution?

Have you tried Keynote? Other than that, you'll pretty much need to activate fonts to be able to use them.

That's just it...I *don't* want to use the fonts, but PowerPoint insists on doing this for every file. I don't have any presentations that use Asian fonts, nor do I expect to.

Keynote is nice, but my clients require PowerPoint...
