Mystery characters appearing in titles in PPT slides
Mystery characters - PowerPoint
My client's has a set of mystery characters that is appearing in many of the title slides between the words of the title. Appearing between the title words is stacked letters, a capital "L" and then underneath "SEP". to try and delete, I went to the master view to see if there was anything hidden in the title slides and found nothing.
I cannot see these on my PPT version but she can. The font is a basic one, Calibri so it's not a font issue. The client MAY be looking at this on her SurfacePRO, could that be a problem?
The client sent me a screen shot, I can't figure out how to get rid of this. Thanks!

Not 100% sure so not submitting it as an answer, but I would suggest checking that the font you're using exists on the client machine. Alternatively, switch to a common true-type font such as Arial.

It's possible that the client is running some type of add-in intended to show them where line/paragraph endings occur in their text. You might ask about that (though the answer you get may or may not be accurate). Or maybe have them create a new slide in the same presentation, then type some text into the title placeholder, including ENTER and SHIFT+ENTER to see if either of those makes the odd character appear. Have them save/reopen the presentation to check also.
