I copied/pasted from some website to a PPT slide. Whenever I click justify, the text spacing goes all sorts of craziness: Code: What is up with This Spacing How do you fix this? I googled it, got more confused and I don't think they have a fix for 2010.
if you don't want the formatting, why don't you copy/paste into notepad and then copy/paste from there into ppt?
Simplify pressing Enter at the end works in earlier versions. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070914053043AAwz17T
You don't need a fix from Microsoft. Copy the text into notepad, so that the text loses its formatting for the website. Then copy the plain text from notepad to PPT 2010.
There is a paste option in Office 2010 that allows you to paste text only, automatically stripping it of source formatting. This workaround is unnecessary.
This is a PARAGRAPH function. It is attached to the section that you pasted. Right-click anywhere in the paragraph. Select "Paragraph..." from the context menu. It might also be that the formatting on that PPT is full-justified. Check your options on Word: in Tools | Options | Compatibility, make sure that "Don't expand characters on the line ending Shift-Return" is not checked.
Thanks brahs, I still sort of don't understand what is goings on. I played around with what you guys said... I don't know what I did, but it's back to normal now. I also can't find notepad on this macbook (work comp)
