Hi List,

While you are enjoying your long week-end, I have been wondering how I could fit a fairly long variable, prepared in AS, to a PowerPoint slide.

The slide is well created, but does not contain the whole content of the slide_content

tell
application "Microsoft PowerPoint"
set this_slide to make new slide at the end of this_presentation ¬
with properties {slide layout text slide, auto size:shape to fit text}
set the title_text to text range of text frame of shape 1 of this_slide
set the subtitle_text to text range of text frame of shape 2 of this_slide
set content of the title_text to slide_heading
set content of the subtitle_text to slide_content
end tell

Only approx. 300 out of 450 characters are transferred to the text range. The auto size property does not help.

Any idea what the problem is?

Thanks,

Michael
