Only One Font Pool for Both Notes and Slides in PowerPoint PSS ID Number: Q64741 Article last modified on 09-25-1991 PSS database name: W_PowerPt

WINDOWS

Summary:

Since there is only one font pool, mapping the same typeface for both slides and note pages to two different typefaces will map slides and note pages to the typeface to which the note pages were mapped.

Reproduction Sequence
For example:

For slides, map a font, such as AvantGarde, to Helv. For note pages, map the same font to Courier. The result is that AvantGarde for both slides and note pages will be mapped to Courier.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in PowerPoint for Windows version 2.00. We are researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
