PowerPoint 2007 has two levels of masters: masters and layouts. Masters have the naming convention "Master#-[Master Name]" while layouts take the form "Master#-Layout#-[Layout Name]". On load, PowerPoint 2007 matches layout pages with their corresponding master pages (those having the same Master#), as one of the inheriting layouts. Master pages whose names do not conform to either of these formats, and layout pages that do not have a corresponding master, are treated as masters and are given the default PowerPoint 2007 layouts.

s.   The standard defines the attribute style:page-layout-name, contained within the element <style:master-page>

This attribute is supported in core PowerPoint 2007.

In PowerPoint 2007, if different masters or pages have different size dimensions, they will all default to the dimensions of the last master that is not recognized to be a layout.
