MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / March 2008Text Autofit Not Working in 1 document
I have a document where the text Autofit feature is not resizing the text in the main text boxes in PowerPoint 2003. I checked Tools | Autocorrect Options | Autoformat as You Type, and it is set to Autofit body and title Text. It does work properly for the Title boxes at the top of the pages, just not for all the other text boxes. If I create a new document, I don't have the problem. It seems to be confined to the text boxes in this particular document. I had edited it in PowerPoint 2007 on another computer, if that could have corrupted it in some way. I need to get Autofit Text to work again in this document. Any ideas? Thanks, Colin The options for text resizing are different in 2007 and can be applied to individual placeholders not just the whole presentation. I guess you've accidently applied "Don't resize" You can't directly undo this in 2003 as that option doesn't exist Try this: Highlight all the affected text in a placeholder and cut it. Now select the placeholder itself and press DELETE A new placeholder may appear if not apply the layout again Put the cursor in the placeholder and paste Does that sort it?

I wanted to apply a fix across the whole presentation, so as I make minor edits slides that happen to change their length, I don't need to do an operation like that every time. Thanks anyway. That does help and is pretty quick. - Colin > The options for text resizing are different in 2007 and can be applied to > individual placeholders not just the whole presentation.
