I have a large powerpoint presentation which contains a lot of graphics and a
lot of pages of text. I want to cut and paste the text pages into Word - but
when I do so I lose all the formatting - specifically the colour,
superscript, bold, italic formating.

Is there any way that I can successfully cut and paste text from Powerpoint
int Word whilst retaining the formatting. It could save me hours of
re-formatting!

Bizarre though it may sound, you might want to try:

Save as Web Page from PPT
Open the resulting HTML file in Word
