Recently I've created a template in Powerpoint for our company, but we've noticed a few problems according to colors and fonts when you paste a chart from another PowerPoint presentation. Even if I paste the chart with destination theme, the colors and fonts does not match – it choose styles that's not even in my template.

For example: I can paste (with destination theme) two different charts from two different presentations, and they'r not going to look the same.

Some info:The people who are going to use this template are also using Mac and PC, and also use SharePoint (if that info is necessary).

    Hi @Rasmus Lundgren

    Could you please tell us where is the template stored, such as on a shared network location, on a SharePoint organization assets library?

    Do you mean this issue occur with all users?

    Please check following threads:

    Understanding the behavior of "Use Destination Theme"

    PowerPoint - Use Destination Theme does not work when copying a pasted content

    Try to create the new template from your old template, taking care with legacy layouts not to delete any slide layouts, change any layout names, or delete or add any placeholders.If the charts can be obtained from Excel workbook, I suggest you import an Excel chart, check wether this issue persist.
