SYMPTOMS
Consider the following scenario. In Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007, you paste a slide from one presentation to a new presentation. However, PowerPoint 2007 cannot locate a matching layout in the destination presentation. Therefore, some of the formatting and the layout from the original slide may be missing in the new slide. Additionally, a new custom layout slide is added to the slide master.

In this scenario, the slide master now contains a new custom layout slide followed by the incompletely pasted slide.



CAUSE
This behavior may occur if PowerPoint 2007 cannot determine that there is a matching layout in the destination presentation.



WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, apply the original layout from the destination design templates that most closely matches the layout of the pasted slide.
