Hi Kim,

Thanks for reporting this, and, more importantly, you for providing a file that enables us to reproduce the problem.  We've opened a new issue to track work on this bug at


In the meantime, as your uploading a .pptx document, can you save it as .pdf, then upload.  It should display fine in BigBlueButton (let us know of the .pdf version of the document has any problems).


Regards,... Fred

Hi Kim,

Got it.  We have the document attached to issue 1274.   We'll be looking at this as part of the 0.81 development effort.  If you star that issue, you'll get updates as we progress through figuring out why this document is causing problem for the conversion on the server to .pdf.

You can also try saving the file to .pdf in Office and try uploading the file again as a .pdf file.  


Regards,... Fred
