Therefore it is not a bug. Just > corrupted file. It is also possible that MS Office 2007 can no longer open PowerPoint 4.0 files. These files are from 1996-1997. Did you try with an older version of MS Office? (I do not have any version of MS Office here to test.) The "file" command shows the following for the sdsi20-maryland.ppt file: sdsi20-maryland.ppt: Composite Document File V2 Document, Little Endian, Os: Windows, Version 4.0, Code page: 1252, Title: On Public-Key Infrastructures, Author: Ronald L.
