A slide from a slide show which shows Arial font incorrectly

A presentation (.odp) was created in Presentation using Arial font in version 3.5.1.2; everything looks fine in the editor.  However, when a Slide Show is run, either from within the Presentation Editor or from a standalone slide show (.pps) created from the file, the displayed font looks narrow and there are spaces between some letters within words.  

A .ppt version was saved and was tested in Microsoft Office Powerpoint 2003; the Slide Show in Powerpoint looked fine. 

A Portable Apps version of Open Office (3.5.0rc3) was installed on a flash drive.  The saved .odp file from the 3.5.1.2 version was brought into Presentation in the 3.5.0rc3 version; this time, both the editor version and the Slide Show version displayed correctly.  

Also, when the same .odp file was brought into Presentation in Open Office 3.3, the editor version and Slide Show version displayed correctly.

Conclusion: a bug has been introduced in the Slide Show code in Presentation between version 3.5.0rc3 and version 3.5.1.2 of Libre Office.
