Powerpoint font problem!

well i have some picture but basically i have some text on word that look likes this:

lorem ipsum dolor amet

but when i paste it on powerpoint (or just type it) it comes out like this:



l o r e m i p s u m d o l o r a m e t

which is really annoying....
i tried changing font, size, spacing. i believe this is called "tracking". i have no idea how to fix it. i would appreciate your help!

i have some screenies if u need to take a look.

I use Powerpoint 2007 - if I need to add text to a slide, I would use the 'Insert' tab and either insert a 'Text box' or 'WordArt'.

More information would be useful to give better / more accurate guidelines.

Insert a text box. Then it will work. Example: (but usually you would use a blank page).

i figured it out anyways, i just changed the default printer to pdf printer and it just fixed itself... weird if you ask me. (had espon LX printer, changed to adobe pdf printer from acrobat pro).
