Actual text is smaller than Master Slide?

[Guest]

I got a call from a customer the other day. He was setting the text for all
levels in the Master Slide to 32 points.

I tested this with him. For some reason, the text is auto sized to something
smaller in the actual slide presentation. I couldn't find a patter to what
the text is resized to.

I have tried turning off auto fit for title text and body text. That didn't
resolve the problem. Now I'm stumpt.

Is there any way to have the defined text size in the Master Slide stick to
the other slides, regardless of any kind of issues?

Are you (your customer) using the default slide layout (title and text)?
If you use any layout with narrower text placeholders eg title & two text or
title,text & content the text size is usually master -4pts.

Did that answer the question / help?

Thank you. That almost describes my problem, except that the slides, save
three that have diagrams, apear to be the default layout.

Is there an option to not correct the text by -4pts?
