excuse me. after looking at the classic episodes (UK episodes from 1999 to early 2002) again, now I realize that the font for the Answer letters (A, B, C and D) is not Copperplate Gothic Std 29 BC or Copperplate Gothic Std 30 BC, it's the "condensed" Copperplate Gothic Std 32 BC. but so far I can't "condense" the font in Powerpoint, only in Word. Additionally, long answers, when I try to apply the "condensed spacing", the letters are touching each other, unlike in Word, where we can set the "scale", the letters are condensed but don't touch each other, and that's exactly what I want, just like what is seen on the actual show. Here is what Powerpoint does: streamable.com/pcj09Here is what Word does (and that's what I want in Powerpoint also, it looks exactly like what is done on TV): streamable.com/r6jitand here is the footage from the actual telecast: any idea how to do this in Powerpoint? or is/are there any Powerpoint alternative(s) that can do what Word does?

You can use a WordArt for the long answer you want condensed. Use the Transform option, and click one of the first options which has the text filling the entire shape. Then you can shape it as long or tall as you want.
Functionally it's not the best option, but if you're just doing graphics, it'll work.

Square transform? Yeah, I told you about that. If the "Scale" option was available in PowerPoint, that would be a million times easier.
