change master after inserting slides from outline

[Guest]

Hello,
I have been working on a presentation. Once I inserted slides from a Word
outline, I changed fonts on the master and those font changes weren't
relected on the inserted slides. There is still only one master and all of
the other changes took effect except for the font changes. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Debora

In order for the fonts to follow the new master style the fonts used in Word
need to be the same as your default master font in powerpoint (Arial probably)

Does that make sense

Hi John,
Thanks for trying but that doesn't work either. I made sure that the font in
the outline was the same as the font in the presentation before inserting.
Once I changed the master, the only slide effected was the one that was there
before inserting. Rather aggravating as the inserted slides make up the
majority of the presentation. It would seem that there would be some
alternative...

Forget my earlier answer I misread the ?. This was for "send to powerpoint"

If you insert slides from outline the font should follow the master. Are you
sure in the word outline that title text is just set to heading1 and other
text to heading 2 heading 3 etc
