I have PowerPoint 2003, and have been adjusting an existing design template.
It looks fine until one places too much text on the page, so the auto resize
kicks in.

It seems that all levels are resized except the second - the text size
remains the same, but after a while of adding text, the space between lines
is reduces, so the text starts overlapping.

How can I adjust the template to stop this from happening? Any ideas?

As a test, change the typeface to Arial for all of the text in the text box
(and on the master slide the slide's based on). Does the problem still happen?

Also, improbable as it may sound, try the suggestions here:
