The information in this article applies to:

 == Microsoft PowerPoint for the Macintosh, version 4.0 == 

= SUMMARY =

PowerPoint 4.0 for the Macintosh will import Persuasion 2.1 files. Since Persuasion supports multiple background slides, PowerPoint places all Persuasion objects on the slides and leaves the master slide blank. If you make any changes to the slide master of the converted Persuasion presentation, those changes will not appear on the converted slides, unless you perform the steps listed below.

= MORE INFORMATION =

If you want to customize the slide master of a converted Persuasion presentation and want the changes to apply to all slides, perform the following steps:


 * 1) From the Format menu, choose Slide Background.
 * 2) Select the “Display Objects on This Slide” check box.
 * 3) Choose the Follow Master button to adopt color.
 * 4) Choose Apply To All.

You will now see the master slide and all of the converted objects from the Persuasion objects.
