Had some real problems when printing from Microsoft Office Powerpoint 2003 to Adobe Acrobat 2007. When it came up as a PDF much to my horror it had moved logos around and change small fonts.

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 7.0.0, Windows

This knowledge base article may offer a solution

PDFMaker is unavailable in a Microsoft Office application with Acrobat (7, 8, 3D, and 3D 8 on Windows)

I have Office 2007 and Vista. I had done a Powerpoint presentation that finished out at 12.3MB
(my first one as I'm not a tech kind of gal) After trying and trying to get it sent, to include via YouSendIt.com to a number of friends as a test & many issues of them not being able to open it, I was at wits end.
I had a recommendation to convert the file to PDF - and that took forever to find out how. I've downloaded a sample - that worked. In trying to upload/convert the good copy - after about 30min, I cancelled that action as it wasn't complete even then. I first had to save the Powerpoint in the earlier format, 1998-2003 and that had the .ppt, the 2007 version has a file extension of .ppsx which isn't readable on Acrobat 9. In my test run with Acrobat, some of my fonts, paragraph spacing, etc. were changed.
As we a very remotely located in the Canadian Rockies, we are trying to use this as a marketing tool for our Oufitting business.
I will be looking forward to any help that can be provided.
Kind regards, Laurie
