How to keep font type, color, size when pasting

Captivate 7, Windows 7

Hi,

When I copy and paste text from a caption or smart object, etc. from one slide into a caption, or smart object, etc on another slide, the font type, color, and size all change. Since I have to do a lot of copying and pasting of text, this is taking a lot of time.

The type of font, color, and size are the default font for the template. So why is it changing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks!
