when doing Power Point, does the Font Size need to be the same on all slides
to make a professional presentation?

As a general rule, the more consistency, the more professional it will
look. However, that is only a general rule, so there are plenty of good
reasons to not be 100% consistent.

Is there any helpful resources out there with a guide of those reasons? :)
Thanks for your help

My favorite resource for graphical design issues like this is
Interactivity by Design by Kristof and Satran, but it is fairly old and
probably out of print. As I recall, Robin Williams (the technical writer,
not the comedian) also has a good book related to this subject, but I
don't recall it's name off the top of my head.

The Robin Williams book is called The Non-Designer's Design Book. I just
read it a few weeks ago, and in fact was going to recommend it to the
original poster!

Great minds and all that. :)

Yes! That's the one. I know it is on my bookshelf somewhere, but I can't
seem to find it. I'm glad you came up with the name.
