Converting old presentations into new master schemes

Hi Katie, thanks for your query. If you've created a new master slide layout, don't bother copying the new master into the old master. That way lies madness! Simply create a new presentation based on your new slide master and then copy/import without keeping the source formatting from an old presentation. The new slide master will automatically reformat the incoming information. It will never reformat it entirely correctly so it will still require a bit of work depending on how different your new slide master is.

Hope this helps,

Anthony
