Font conversions to Powerpoint 08 from Keynote 09

I have a font called CAC Leslie that I am trying to bring in to a powerpoint presentation from keynote. When I export it out the font shows up on the powerpoint font list but the actual characters show as some type of sans serif font like arial or verdana. Is there any sort of plugin that can remedy this so the font shows as it should?

mac pro, Mac OS X (10.6.2)

Is the PowerPoint presentation on the same machine, or a different one? Both PowerPoint and Keynote use the fonts that are on the presenting machine -- if the required font is not available, it is substituted. There is no plugin for either application that addresses this, as you simply need to have the required font installed.

As a workaround, you could make the text into a graphic in Keynote.
