PowerPoint Paste Full Slide (Keep Source Formatting)
Good morning/afternoon/evening everyone,
I know this comes off as an easy question, but I can't seem to paste a full slide in PP from one deck to another without losing some formatting. I understand there is paste options, but even when I paste via "keep source formatting" it seems to shrink my margins in. I tried publishing the slides and opening them directly from the saved file in the destination deck, but again it distorts my margins. The thumbnail of the saved slides look perfect, and as soon as it's opened it changes.
Has anyone experienced this? If so, have you found a solution?

Well, everyone, I'm sorry to say I fixed the issue. This question can be deleted by a moderator unless they feel as though my answer would be helpful for others, which will follow...
My one slide deck was set on the design tab to widescreen 16:9 and standard 4:3 on the other. This explains why when I had pasted from one to the other it wasn't filling in the full area. I simply changed this option under the drop down that says "slide size". I'm using PowerPoint 2013.
Enjoy the rest of your week.
Though, this changes all slides and now the others are distorted. I know I'm talking to myself at this point, but maybe someone can now follow-up with a solution to this new issue.
Shrink the widescreen to the standard, do an ensure fit, then you can paste in the same aspect. You can't ensure fit it to widescreen from standard, but it works fine to bring it all down to standard.
Glad I could work this out in a public area and make myself look like an idiot.
Cheers
