PowerPoint 2010’s Format Painter option does an absolutely amazing job of copying all the formatting attributes from one slide object to another. For instance, you can copy all attributes of a shape (and even the text that the shape contains) to another shape, text box, or even a text placeholder. However, this is an all-or-nothing option. Sometimes, you may want to just copy the text formatting attributes, without copying the shape fill or any of the other shape attributes. This can be even more confusing when the text itself is formatted in more than one style. Selecting the entire text box, and then copying its attributes to another text box using the Format Painter will never replicate two text styles — so clearly there has to be a better way! We explain the better way in this tutorial — read further to understand.

Welcome to this week’s issue of Indezine News — while last week we looked at the hot topic of iPad presenting, this time we will look at online presentations, an area that is getting increasingly crowded and full featured at the same time. One of our interviews this week is with Harman Singh of authorSTREAM, an online presentation site that has made spectacular improvements in their PowerPoint to video engine. Meanwhile, we already spoke about SlideShark last week when discussing iPad presenting solutions — SlideShark is from Brainshark, a company (and site) that has an impressive toe-hold in the area of online presentations.

This can be even more puzzling when your text by itself is formatted in more than one style. Selecting the entire text box, and then copying its attributes to another text box using the Format Painter will never replicate two text styles — so clearly there has to be a better way!
