RE: Powerpoint docs randomly drop charts (MOSS 2007)
:p In this case, I think they do. We try to make all of our charts embedded in the pptx file. Occasionally we have to insert a linked chart, but in large the problem seems to not discriminate between emedded or linked charts.

Would your users know the difference? :) There is no easy way to check this and no "Publish" or "Preflight" checks within PowerPoint. It all comes down to how they inserted the conent.
