Hi! Is there a way on a master page to ensure that the text will shrink in size instead of overflowing out of a text frame?  I have a text frame with <Section Header> and some section titles are longer than what the box is set for, and I'd rather set something on the master slide vs. changing each individual page header where this box is to shrink the text to fit.  Thanks!

The only way I know of is called planning ahead.

Are all the headers known beforehand? Make the font and font-size so the longest bit of text fits into the text frame size you want.

If all the headers are not known beforehand then you are out of luck.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

Why not just make that text frame bigger (wider, plus room for an additional line)?
