Editor's Notes

  • #2 Go to ‘View’ menu > ‘Header and Footer…’ to edit the footers on this slide (click ‘Apply’ to change only the currently selected slide, or ‘Apply to All’ to change the footers on all slides). To change the image on this slide: Click once on the image to select it, and then delete it Drag a replacement picture to the placeholder or click the icon in the centre of the placeholder to browse for & add another image Once you have added your replacement image, you may need to put it into the background so that it doesn’t cover other items on the slide. Do this by right-clicking on the new image and choosing ‘Arrange’ > ‘Send to Back’ from the contextual menu Once added, the image can be cropped, resized or repositioned to suit.
