Slide content has shrunk when changing layout.

Question

Hi,

Working on some uni coursework last night and I changed the layout from portrate to landscape to see what it would look like. When this happened all of the slide content scale changed form a text size of 12 to 2.5, pictures included, please see the slide below.

When I changed the slides back to portrate the text and pictures remains small and will not seem to change back.

The slides have been autosaved on cloud since so I can not just press back or load previouse versions.

Does anyone know how I can chane these back to origional scale please because my coursework is due in soon?

Many thanks for your help

We can't give you specific steps, since you haven't posted what operating system or version of PowerPoint you're using. You can post a screen shot using the Insert image tool (circled below):

First, save a copy from the cloud to your computer, so you have a backup. Then try changing the slide size to see if PowerPoint automatic resizing will kick in again, hopefully with a better result. If that doesn't help repair the damage, you'll have to manually select all items and reset their size.
