Hi 

When i export my power point slides to pdf and open it in Ai, the fonts are missing. Eventhough the fonts used in power point and Ai are showing same.

 

Can anyone help me how to fix this.

Office products can embold and skew fonts if the bold and italic versions are not available. Adobe products don't do that. 

Could that be the problem?

 

As an aside, what is the goal of this workflow?

I have power point slides, which i am converting to XD to HTML. I dont want to type down entire PPT content into XD ;(

So I tried to export PPT to PDF and PDF to Ai and Ai to XD. Unfortunately font is missing. Now i am exporting PPT into BMP and doing it.

Illustrator is not a general purpose PDF editor. You get what you get and have to deal with it.

Replace the fonts in the Illustrator file.
