Notes Master Lost When Applying Template

[Sarah R.]

Hello,

When I apply a new template to existing PPT files, the slide master applies
to all of the slides but the notes master is lost - the size of each
placeholder, size of the slide, the font of the notes body area, and bullet
format all revert to the default PPT template.

Does anyone have any ideas of how I can get the Notes Master to apply to the
PPT?

Thanks, Sarah R.

When you apply a template the notes format is not applied. One work around is
to save an empty presentation with the formats you need open it and use
insert slides from files to add your files.

Thanks, John. I never knew that. I assumed all masters would be applied.
The work around is a great tip though!
