Need to present something important but you don’t know where to start? Well, this is where you can start. With image and text placeholders, Simple Presentation offers you flexibility and style, all in a simple format. One download and you're good to go! Product Type: PowerPoint (Windows), PowerPoint (Mac), Keynote. Typeface Troubles. When you build your PowerPoint presentation with the OpenType typefaces that ship with Microsoft Office, you rely on resources that both the Mac and the Windows editions of the software recognize and support.
In Office 2011, when you import slides from another ppt presentation, you get a slide finder box that allows you to select which slides you want, and whether or not you want the slide(s) to stay in original format. Now, in Office 2016, when you request an import, there is no slide finder box to chose which slides you want, and no box to check off to retain format. I can only import the entire other presentation, be it one, or one hundred slides, and you lose original formatting. Is this the way it is now? If so, that is a huge oversight and will force me back to Office 2011. There does not appear to be anything in preferences to turn such a function on or off.
Thank you one and all. Yep: Yet another capability sacrificed in the name of 'new & improved':-) Use the Smiley @ the right end of the Ribbon to submit your comments. In the meanwhile, resort to good ol' copy/paste. But don't expect that to be a fully satisfactory workaround unless you first use File Page Setup to choose On-Screen Show (4:3) for the aspect ratio of your presentation file.
That needs to be done first so that existing slides can be scaled down. An existing presentation in PPT 2016 defaults to Widescreen (which is 13.33:7.5 & AFAIK Inserted slides cannot be scaled up. Please mark HELPFUL or ANSWERED as appropriate to keep list as clean as possible ☺ Regards, Bob J. Repeat Bob advice at this website which is a Direct link (or is Supposed to be) to the developers. look for the link for Power 2016 for Mac. Then look around and see if this has been reported as a bug or suggestion.

If so vote for it and comment on it giving the same reason as here. If not submit a Bug Report.
(it will already receive one vote). Then comment on it. If the developers get reports from two different directions it might be looked at more closely.
