  Assuming you've saved them somewhere.

Load your existing presentation

Then goto the format menu and choose "apply design"
Then navigate to where you have saved the design templates
Select one of them, and click "apply"
Done.

  TAJ Simmons,

I have got the same problem, but unfortunately I do not get that problem
with your post solved...

I use the 2003 version and I have no idea where the design templates are
saved (searched unsucessfully and "save as" does not work either) and when I
press "format" the menu on the right side pops up wiht no trace of the
downloaded design...

It is quiet easy to copy 8 pages, but that will not solve the basic problem
I actually have...

If theres anybody out there with the information I need, please help...

Dopamin

  Simply go to FORMAT menu, select SLIDE DESIGN. Click BROWSE which is found
below the lists of design templates. Then locate where you saved the design
template you have downloaded. I hope I was able to help you...
