Font looking "off" in power point

Hello,
We have power point templates for our company.
all are using them and it looks and acts as it should.
only for one user the text is  "off" , all other users can see and edit the text
for this specific user when he opens the presentation , it seams like the text is bugger than the text box...while if another user will open the same presentation , it will look perfect.
all users use office 2013 on WIN7

Your screenshot shows the Outlook windows, while you were mentioning Powerpoint? Anyway, is there anything different from this user, in comparison with the other users (smaller screen, lower resolution)?
I just upload screenshots, we have couple users with Lenovo X220 and this problematic user also have X220..

any advise ?
The outlook window is a a screen shot my user with the problematic PP send
and the real PP is opened on my computer
Sometimes users with small screen still try to lower their screen resolution. Also they try to have bigger fonts (but that should be limited to Windows OS elements). Can you still check if that's the case (check settings working X220 and non-working X220). You also need to have this Powerpoint open in both screens, see if the non-working has it in the same way (full screen I assume).
Hi,
I verified they both users works with the same resolution, the one that the presentation looks OK and the other user where the presentation don't looks OK.
The font looks slightly different in the screenshots. Can you edit the original powerpoint, so you can check the font name (better check BOTH white text, the upper AND the lower white letters). Then check if that font is really installed on the non-working computer.
this is probably one of two things.

1. Missing or corrupt font. Make sure the user has the font that's used inn the template installed. If she does, then try reinstalling it in case it's corrupt.

2. Printer driver issue. Sounds strange, but ppt relies heavily on printer drivers for its display. Try installing a local known good printer driver  And set out as the default printer. Here's more info about that:http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00952_How_to_install_a_TEST_printer_driver.htm
Thanks, I'll check it and keep you update..
Still not working after perform those actions..

any other advise ?
Please confirm that the font looks off in powerpoint. When the file is opened actually in powerpoint and not just in outlook.
Yes, they looks off in PowerPoint
What font is causing the problem?
open-sans (Hebrew)
did you try for that user from another machine?
Yes, others machines open the PowerPoint and it looks OK.
I also tried to re-install Office 2013 on his machine...
I suggest to remove the office and remove its registry keys then install it again and try, follow the steps in the below link to remove office registry

http://community.spiceworks.com/how_to/2621-remove-leftover-office-registry-keys
already tried to completely uninstall (include cleaning the REG) and this didn't solved my problem..
When you installed the test printer driver, which one did you use?

And did you set it as the default printer on the problem machine?

did you try to repair the windows ?

repair didn't helped, the problem was exist..
surely the last solution is to re-install windows if repairing didn't fix the issue.
Yep, very strange ..
