<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:4.5pt"><em><span style="color:black">automatically shrinking</span></em><span style="color:black"> - without your permission? <br>
<br>
You have the font set to the size you want, but <strong>when sentences become longer</strong>,
<strong>the font decides to get smaller ... on the entire slide!</strong> This can be frustrating! <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:4.5pt"><span style="color:black"><br>
<strong>You want a </strong><em><b>consistent</b></em><strong> look to all of your slides .</strong>.. which means predominantly using the same font size throughout. When you have uniformity, not only is your presentation easier for the viewer to read, it
gives a more polished appearance and is less visually jarring. <br>
<br>
Unfortunately, when you have automatic shrinking, <strong>you have to keep fiddling around in each slide</strong> to make all the letters the same size ... because the software default is to have all the words
<em>fit</em> on a page, rather than be consistent in appearance on every slide.<br>
<br>
</span><strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">AutoFit Feature</span></strong><b><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black"><br>
<br>
</span><strong><span style="color:black">This auto-shrinking is a feature called </span>
</strong><em><span style="color:black">AutoFit</span></em></b><span style="color:black">. It tries to "help" you put all your text on a page. But this helpfulness often wastes large blocks of your time because the font keeps changing from slide to slide. <br>
<br>
One thing you can do is <strong>to just turn OFF AutoFit.</strong><b><br>
<br>
<strong>In the example below,</strong></b> we added text in the slide on the left and it automatically
<em>AutoFit</em> and <strong>shrank too small</strong> for the audience to clearly read it. When we turned off
<em>AutoFit</em>, the standard, default slide font was kept intact -- as pictured in the slide on the right.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<strong>NOTE</strong>: If you choose to leave the AutoFit as is, there is one thing you can do: <strong>shorten the quantity of words on each line and / or slide!</strong> Be creative; be more succinct. Best practices for PowerPoint is to list important
concepts for you to talk about; not become a textbook for your audience to read. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
