If you are a Mac user, you will have PowerPoint 2008 or 2011 installed on your machine. An easy way to see which version you have is to either go to your “About PowerPoint” when you have the program open, or simply look at the icon.

You can copy just the style of selected text and apply that style to other text. • Do one of the following: • the text with the style you want to copy. The style of the first character in the text selection is what's copied.

Select carefully—if the first character in your selection is a white space, the text where you paste the style is replaced by white space. Mac printer driver for canon. • Place the in the text with the style you want to copy. Everything that you would see if you were to begin typing at the insertion point is copied. That includes any paragraph style, character style, and style overrides applied to that text. • Choose Format > Copy Style (from the Format menu at the top of your screen).

• Select other text where you want to apply the style, or place the insertion point in text, then choose Format > Paste Style. If you place the insertion point in a paragraph or select full paragraphs, text boxes, or shapes, existing paragraph or character styles are replaced with what you paste. If you select one or more partial paragraphs (for example, one or more words in a paragraph), or a full paragraph and part of another, only character styles and not paragraph styles are applied to the selected text. You can paste text styles from one Keynote presentation to another. If the presentation where you paste the style doesn’t have the style, it’s added to the character or paragraph style menu for that presentation.

If a style with the same name already exists, that style gets a style override. See to learn how to deal with style overrides.

Hi, we are linking data from Excel into PowerPoint. We have already formated the date in Excel. When we link the data into PowerPoint we get changes in the row height, font size etc. Although all these formatting is the same in Excel. The only difference is that in one worksheet the data is in more columns and rows than on the other worksheet but surely that should not mess up the formating. I am missing the option 'Keep Source Formatting & Link Data' Option. Our smarttag won´t suggest that so we go via Home - Paste Special.

However, we noticed the following: When copying the first table, we see 'Attach Hyperlink' in the 'Paste Special' dialog box. When we try to link the second table, which is displayed right next to the first table on the same sheet 'Attach Hyperlink' is not showing. We can´t figure out what´s different between those two tables. Any ideas how we can ensure that our Excel data stays as it is when linking it into PowerPoint? Kind regards.

Hello Nicole, Thank you for choosing Microsoft Community and thanks for posting the question. I will assist you with the formatting and linking issue you’re experiencing in PowerPoint. Please provide additional information for better assistance: 1) How are you linking multiple worksheets into PowerPoint? 2) Do you have Skype installed on your computer?

3) Do you have the option ‘ Use smart cut and paste’ and ‘ Show Paste Options button when content is pasted’ checked under File > Options > Advanced > ‘ Cut, copy and paste’ checked? If no, check the option and save it settings and try linking the table and verify the result.

Create a new worksheet with tables and try linking it in PowerPoint and verify whether issue re-occurs. The ‘ Attach hyperlink’ option won’t appear for the second table copied from a same worksheet as the first table would already establish the link to the worksheet. I hope the above information is helpful. Reply with necessary information and the result for further assistance.
