How to set all text in all slides to the same font?

I'm making a presentation that's looking a lot like the Frankenstein monster right now. There are 4 different fonts being used throughout all the slides, and I'd like to normalize this. I want to set all the text to the same font.
How can I do that?

I tried simply selecting all slides, but then you can't select the Font menu (and that's as far as my PowerPoint experience goes).

Select all the slides (Ctrl+A) using the Outline view. You can then change the Font for the selected text.

In 2010 and 2013 its very simple

1) Home Tab > Replace (click More arrow) > Replace fonts

You should edit Slide Master. Set all fonts as the one you want in all slides in the Slide Master.

The suggestions above will allow you to change the font for any text in title/body/etc. placeholders (the "Click here" things that appear on new slides). It won't affect other text; for that, you'd need to use a bit of VBA.

Sub TextFonts() Dim oSl As Slide Dim oSh As Shape Dim sFontName As String ' Edit this as needed: sFontName = "Times New Roman" With ActivePresentation For Each oSl In .Slides For Each oSh In oSl.Shapes With oSh If .HasTextFrame Then If .TextFrame.HasText Then .TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Name = sFontName End If End If End With Next Next End With
End Sub
