    WOWWWW!!! I always think I’ve identified every command in PowerPoint but have never seen this! I always advise have minimum size 30. Is there a way to find & replace text sizes?

    • @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining

      Glad I could share a new one with you :). Great question about font size...there is not a default way that I know of to do that other than changing the font of your placeholders on the slide master. The only problem there is it will not update text in any stray objects. Will let you know if I think of something. Thanks for the comment!

      please tell me how can i change the font colour of a single word like "correct" wherever it exists in all slides at once???

      @@ilovecats2796 To do that will be a multi-step process. (1) Copy the formatting of the text you want to apply (Ctrl + Shift + C) (2) Ctrl + F to find your first word "correct" and then close out of the find dialog box (3) Apply your formatting Ctrl + Shift + V (4) hit Shift + F4 to find again to find the next work and apply your formatting. You can then Shift + F4 your way through your entire document to keep finding the next instance of the word and using your apply formatting shortcut.

      @@ilovecats2796 Correct, that is not possible. None of the PowerPoint features allow you to do that automatically unless you build yourself a macro. The fastest way I can think of doing that (outside off building your own macro) is the chain of shortcuts I mentioned in my other comment. Hope that helps.

      That is possible as long as all of your text is properly formatted Content Placeholders. If it is, you could change it all on the slide master. If you aren't familiar with the slide master, check out our series on creating a PowerPoint tempalte (and you'll understand why it would work).

      Great question. When you paste into PowerPoint, you can select "Use Destination Theme" from the Paste Options button, which will convert your font size and style to however your PowerPoint template is setup. If you want a specific font size and/or style, you will need to use your shortcuts to get there. Glad you enjoyed the video!

      One other font recommendation, if you are sharing your slides with a lot of different people that might have different versions of PowerPoint (like PowerPoint on a Mac), there are only 9 fonts that will work across all versions of PowerPoint. We detail them in our article here: nutsandboltsspeedtraining.com/powerpoint-tutorials/safe-fonts-powerpoint/

    • @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining
      @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining  6 лет назад +1

      Thanks Laura and great question. Defaulting your shapes only changes the defaults for that specific presentation. If you copy and paste the presentation, those defaults will stay with you, but if you want to set the defaults for other presentations, you'll have to set the defaults individually for those other presentations (which is highly recommended).

    • @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining
      @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining  6 лет назад

      Thanks and great question. The only way to change the font colors and/or the font sizes on your slides, is to change them on the Slide Master. That said, it pre-supposes that all of your information is in placeholders...i.e. you haven't interested any extra shapes or text boxes outside of the template layouts. If you have, there is no default way that I know of to sweep through and change them. For help with slide masters and templates, check out the video Camille shot on setting up a template here on RUclips. ruclips.net/video/oXCjOhlOROw/видео.html

    • @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining
      @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining  5 лет назад

      Great question Todd! Tables are a pain when it comes to PowerPoint as they do not adhere to your default font themes AND you are not allowed to set a default font for them. They will always start with Calibri. The only default setting you can set for your tables is which color combination they start with. To do that, insert a table, go to the Table Design tab, open the Table Styles drop down, right-click the table formatting you always want to start with and select Set As Default. That will set that table style formatting as the default for the current presentation you are in (without affecting your other PowerPoint presentations).

    • @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining
      @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining  6 лет назад

      This happened to someone else that wrote in a while back and here's what we figured out (which might or might not be the case for you). What happened to them was someone had embedded a Mac font (using their Mac computer) but the majority of the team was using a PC. So we think what was happening was, the Mac font was being translated (incorrectly) into a different font on their PC and even though we removed all of those "bad fonts" because we couldn't target that original embedded font it remained in the deck (Even when I tried to clear it on my mac). The bad news was we couldn't get it removed from the replace list, the good new it wasn't actually in the presentation, it was just stuck there in the list. So ti was really just more of an annoyance than anything, as it wasn't showing up. All that is to say, that is another reason why we recommend not embedding fonts. So if it is in your dropdown list but not showing up in your presentation, that might be the issue for you too.

    Can you replace All Bolded Font with not Bolded Fonts? I have about 70-100 slides per lecture to print and my prof bolds EVERY WORD. makes me cringe for my ink to just leave it like that

    • @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining
      @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining  5 лет назад

      Great question. You can't do that with the Replace Fonts command, but what you can do instead is try this:
      1. Holding the Shift Key, select all of your slides in the thumbnail view on the left.
      2. Right-Click the selected slides in the thumbnail view
      3. Click Reset
      My guess is your professor manually bolded the text (he didn't do that as part of this PowerPoint template) so all of the bold text will unbold itself. That's my guess.
      If you also ever select an object (or hit Ctrl + A to select everything) and hit Ctrl + Spacebar, that will also revert all of the formatting back to the template, which most likely won't have the bold text.
      Hopefully that does the trick for you. If you ever want to incorporate different formatting into a template, you can check out our step-by-step template guide here: nutsandboltsspeedtraining.com/powerpoint-tutorials/how-to-create-a-powerpoint-template/

      Which font wasn't there? The Arial (in your presentation) or the Times New Roman that you wanted to replace it with in the Drop Down?
      If you don't see the fonts in your drop down, then it means it isn't in your presentation. Double check that you are swapping out the right font style.

    • @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining
      @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining  6 лет назад

      Thanks for the question. It sounds like you are referring to changing the fonts on the Slide Master so that the default prompt text that pops up is changed (which is slightly different than just using the Replace All Fonts commands). If that is what you mean, you will want to navigate to the slide master and adjust your fonts there. For all things related to tweaking your slide master and building out a template (which is what you would then be doing), I recommend watching Camille's template series on RUclips starting here: ruclips.net/video/oXCjOhlOROw/видео.html

      When you say you double clicked on text box, were you inserting a new text box or was the font not replaced in an existing text box. Replacing fonts will not have an affect on the default formatting of new text boxes or shapes. If you want to change the formatting of new text boxes, you need to (1) insert a text box (2) format it the way you want all new text boxes to show up (3) right-click the formatted text box and (4) Select set as default text box

      @Nutsandboltsspeedtraining  6 лет назад

      Yep...that is a whole other discussion, which was not the point of this video. If you are building presentations that will be used across the different versions of PowerPoint (Mac and PC) I recommend using one of the 5 fonts that works across all platforms. Otherwise you will end up with substitution errors and will be back to replacing fonts like I showed you how to do in this video. For a list of some safe fonts, you can check them out here: presentit.blogspot.com/2009/06/fonts.html
