Set a default font for your PowerPoint presentation (2000/2002/2003/2004/2007)

If you know you'll be using a certain text style, such as a company font, throughout a presentation, you may think about setting it as the default for the active presention. This will save you from having to apply a new text style every time you enter words on your slide. To change the default for this presentation alone, choose Format | Font and in the Font dialog box, change the Font, Font Style, and Size to whatever suits your presentation needs. (In PowerPoint 2007, go to the Home tab and click on the icon in the lower-right corner of the Font group to open the Font dialog box.) Click OK and save your presentation. Every time you create a new text box (in this presentation alone), these settings will apply as default.
