[Solved] Font setting in PPT

Post by Eseek »

I have one powerpoint presentation that when opened some of the text is set to 18 and runs way off the screen. When I click on it to change it, its already set at 18. I have to reclick on 18 to get it back to original size. This is happening in every PPT I open

Hi and welcome to the forum!

MS Office file formats are not well documented, especially the deprecated formats ppt, doc, xls. Thus the import filter may have some glitches.
You can try LibreOffice, which has a better compatibility with MS Office file formats. See [Tutorial] Considering a Switch from OpenOffice to LibreOffice? Some Useful Information.
However, if you need to work with ppt/pptx, then better stick to MS Office.

Please add [Solved] at the beginning of the title in your first post (top of the topic) with the 🖉 button if your issue has been fixed.
LibreOffice 25.2 on Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE Faye) and 24.8 portable on Windows 11.
