I don't see this particular issue in any of the posts. I apologize if it has been answered; please point me
This is MSO 2013 on Win8 (64bit)
I have a PPT presentation. I have put the slide number in the lower right corner of each slide using the Insert. The slide numbers are correct; if I move a slide within the deck, its number changes correctly (and all other slides' numbers change correctly)
I right-click-copy an individual slide and paste-special (picture enhanced metafile) into a Word document. The slide looks fine, but the slide number in the lower right corner of the slide is changed. It doesn't matter which 'special' paste format I use, nor does it matter where in the Word document I paste the slide; the number is changed.
If I right-click-copy, paste-special a different slide, its number is also changed, but not to the same number as the first slide.
If I paste-special the slide into a different Word document, its number is changed to the same value as when pasted into the first Word document.
I have to assume it has something to do with the way that I'm specifying the slide number, but I'm following the instructions, namely:
- while viewing the slide, click Insert. Select Slide number. on the picture, check slide number, then Apply to All
I have to say that this did not happen with MSO 2007 on Win 7 (64) which was my previous platform. Both the PPT deck and the Word document were originally created on that platform and moved to the new platform.
thanks,
