Need to standardize colors in PowerPoint

S

ShawnFultz

I pasted slides from one PowerPoint presentation to a new template. Much of
the text has retained its original formatting despite attempts to reapply the
color scheme.

Any suggestions on how to copy slides and have them conform to the new
template?

The text is in placeholders. There is a color scheme (and font size) set by
the creator of the template I was given. We're using PowerPoint 2003.

Did you follow a color scheme in the original presentation?

Which version of PPT are you using?

Okay, in that case, you might try reapplying the slide layout after you
paste it into the new file.
