Quick summary
Paste in Place in Google Slides lets you copy or cut text and paste it into an existing text box at the same position, preserving your slide layout. If no existing text box is selected before pasting, a new one appears and must be repositioned manually.
Steps
- Select the text you want to move or duplicate on your slide.
- Use Cut (Ctrl + X) or Copy (Ctrl + C) to place the text on your clipboard.
- Select a pre-existing text box that is already in place on the slide.
- Paste (Ctrl + V) the copied text into the selected text box.
- Note: if text is not pasted into an existing text box, a new text box will appear and must be manually moved to the correct position.
