You can apply a design template file (.pot) or a design template from another presentation file (.ppt or .pps) by clicking Browse in the Slide Design task pane.
To browse for a template
- On the Slides tab in normal view, select the slide you want to apply the template to.
The template is applied to all slides that follow the same master as the selected slide.
- On the Format menu, click Slide Design.
- At the bottom of the Slide Design task pane, click Browse.
- Navigate to the location of the template file (.pot) or presentation file (.ppt or .pps) you want to apply; select it, and then click Apply.
- If you apply a template file, the design template is added to the Slide Design task pane under Available for Use, and it is available for subsequent presentations. PowerPoint also adds other templates from the file location you browsed to.
- If you apply a presentation file, the design template from that presentation is applied and is available in the Used in this Presentation section of the Slide Design task pane. If the presentation template you applied had multiple masters, the first master is applied and you are prompted with a message asking if you want the rest of the masters added to the presentation.
