What Is Microsoft 2003 Powerpoint Viewer?

PowerPoint viewers are useful for presenters who must show presentations away from their own computers.

Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 Viewer was an alternative for those who needed to view PowerPoint presentations but did not have a full version of PowerPoint installed on their computer, and for those who needed to distribute PowerPoint presentations to others who had no access to PowerPoint.

Description

Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 Viewer allows computer users to view PowerPoint presentations on computers that do not have PowerPoint installed. This is useful for users who might show presentations in different locations and on different computers.

Availibilty

PowerPoint 2003 Viewer is incompatible with newer versions of PowerPoint and is no longer available for download from Microsoft. So anyone that has PowerPoint 2003 Viewer will not be able to open PowerPoint 2007 files or any later versions.

Alternatives

Microsoft offers a newer PowerPoint viewer, PowerPoint Viewer 2007. This program is backward compatible, so it will open any earlier versions of PowerPoint.
