To run Siebel Presentations on the Siebel Remote Web Client, you must have Microsoft Office installed on the same machine as the Siebel Remote Web Client.

Siebel Correspondence, Siebel Presentations, and Siebel Proposals all use the Siebel Document Server to generate Microsoft Word and Microsoft PowerPoint documents through the Web.

After installing your Siebel applications, you have to enable the Document Server.
