Notes field - text is appearing very tiny on some slides

Hi,

I'm including subtitles for the voiceover in my presentation by using the "Notes" field. On some slides, this text appears at a nearly unreadable font size. I thought at first it was dynamically sizing to accommodate lots of text, but it doesn't seem to correlate to the amount of text at all. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

  • Hi Becky! I'm not sure what you mean by Project? Are you utilizing Presenter '13, which shows as a tab/add-in to Powerpoint?

    I know this is an older post but I found that changing the Auto Fit Option in the Notes Pages View in Power Point kept all my fonts the same when published using iSpring.

    Hi I have the same problem with Presenter (latest version). I have 53 slides, and only one is showing the Calibri 11 into a Calibri 6 or 7 once published (or Previewed).

    I have tried to copy paste from the notepad (it worked once on another project), change the font size many times, but to no avail. What's the bug here?

  • Hi Helene!

    Does the affected slide have an Engage interaction? 

    I ask because we have an open bug where the notes font size on embedded Engage interactions appears smaller than the Presenter notes.

    Let me know if that condition matches your experience!

    I was able to correct the "tiny text" problem for notes in "Normal" view (Powerpoint) by highlighting the text in the notes section and adjusting the zoom to a higher percentage. It cascaded to the other slides.

    The font format for notes only seems to affect the printed page.

    I know the original post was old, but found this site trying to correct the original problem :) and thought that future searchers might benefit.

    I'm on Powerpoint Mac version 16.45.
