Hello,
we have a slight problem which occurs sometimes. It's when someone have an
old PPT and copy paste txt into new template we produced (we still use same
font/size) and when person paste txt into new PPT it change font size!!, (It
should be 16 Arial, and it appears in various sizes), whats happening??
Can we fix this error, so people deont have go through each slide and
correct the font size?

If they reapply the slide layout to the slide, it should fix it. They may
have to reapply the slide layout twice.

I know you want the size to be right in the first place, but I can't think
of a way to guarantee that.
 
I am frustrated with same problem as Rikard, and your reply says we "just
have to live with it". With all of Microsoft's capabilities, why do they
leave issues like this to frustrate users??

Bear in mind that we're civilians here, just like you. There are times when I'd
sure love to be able to listen in on the meetings where some of these decisions
get made (but I'd likely be howling "NO! NO! YOU **HAVE** to fix that" and get
myself ejected. <g>

The things the most people complain about the most bitterly are the things that
seem to get fixed. Perhaps not so many people have complained about this
problem.

That's not to suggest that it's not a serious problem ... obviously, to you it
is.
