5.3.15 Formatting Slides

After we have one or more than one slide in the presentation we can start adding in formation. If we are using any layout other than the Blank Layout, the slide itself will have blocks where we can enter information. In places where title, sub-title or bulleted list is to be added, click inside the frame and start typing.

In other layouts like graph, table, ClipArt etc., double click the respective icon on the screen, which will automatically load the relevant software. Formatting in PowerPoint can be categorised into

• Character Formatting wherein we will be formatting the text that we type in the slide.
• Slide Formatting wherein we will format the entire slide with respect to the colour schemes and slide backgrounds(templates)
