My coworker created a PowerPoint, and when I open it, there appear to be substantial spacing issues. I have only been able to find "answers" in the forums that declare the issue HAS to be that the fonts used are not installed on both computers. Both my colleague and I have this particular font, so that answer does not fit this issue. What I am wondering is if there is an issue with the template or if PowerPoint is resetting the picture sizing/placement/layer on the slides causing the text box to reset. We are both using Microsoft 365 on Lenovo ThinkPads.

Hi John,
Thank you for your follow up question. We were able to figure out that the issue was the pictures in the slides resizing and forcing the text box to shift. By imbedding the picture, we were able to resolve the issue.
I appreciate that you asked for additional information instead of responding with a condescending presumptive post the way Mr. Rindsberg did. It goes a long way in providing a positive experience for customers. You, John, should have the MVP title.

I didn't try to call you stupid. Remember, we can't tell by reading your message how much or little powerpoint experience you have, or what corporate policies you're working under.
I *can*, however, tell from your response that you're not willing to accept suggestions in the spirit in which they're offered, so I'll be more than happy to forego any further attempts at helping.
Over.
