Missing Footer

[ellen]

Using the view Header and Footer, I see the footer check box selected and
text that I want to appear as a footer. However, it is not showing up on the
slide. Any suggestions? I have tried to take out the footer in the slide
master with no luck.

When I view through the Header Footer dialog box it shows up but it is
simply invisible on the slide.

Thanks for any help.

Ellen,
Something covering it up on the master? Also check if there is a check next
to footers when you click on the Master layout button on the Master toolbar.
Or maybe you have hidden background images of the master on the slide.
Right-click on a slide, choose background and see if there is a check next
to Hide graphics from master slide.

Thanks for the reply.
I have checked and there's nothing on the master.
Not sure how I can check the check marck for the Master layout button on the
master toolbar?
And no, I did check and background fill is automatic and omit background
from master is not selected.

Ellen,
When you go to the slide master, there should be a floating toolbar, on that
toolbar there is a button which allows you to put placeholders you have
deleted back. It's the one but last starting from the right. If footers is
unchecked put a check next to it.
