better PowerPoint
presentation.
PowerPoint´s various views eneble you to see
your presentation in a variety of ways.

2. If formatted slides are hard to read in Slide Sorter view, press Alt
and click a slide to see its heading clearly.
PowerPoint provides these views:
 Normal view is the default view that lets you focus on an individual
slide. The slide you are currently editing is called the current
slide.
 Slide Sorter view displays all the slides in a presentation on a single
screen.
 Notes Pages view shows one slide at time, along with any notes that
are associated with slide. This view lets you create and edit
notes.
 Reading view if you display the presentation in a window it enables
you to also work in other window at the same time.

Using Zoom
o PowePoint´s zoom tools let you change the
magnification of slides on the screen.
o You can either use the Zoom dialog box or the Zoom
control to change magnification levels.
o You can drag the Zoom control´s slider bar to the right
or left to change the zoom level.

4. Creating Properties For A Presentation
Porperties are details that the user defines in his/her documents.
Document properties include detailed information such as title,
author´s name, subject, and key words that identify the document´s
topic or content.
PowerPoint can save presentations in several different file format.
Aligning Paragraphs
When you apply paragraph formats such as alignment, you do not
have to select the entire paragraph of text.
Just click anywhere in the paragraph and apply the format, it would
apply to all the paragraph.

5. PowerPoint´s provides 4 paragraph alignment options:
1. Align Text Left: the selected text will align to the left.
2. Center: the selected text will align to the center.
3. Align Text Right: the selected text will align to the right.
4. Justify: the selected text will align, both left and right,
everything equal.

6. Setting Up Colums In A Text Box
PowerPoint enables you to create colums in the
text boxes to present information you want to set
up in lists across the slide but do not want to place
in tables.
If the column choices in the Colums drop-down
menu do not meet your needs, click the More
Columns option to display the Columns dialog box.
Here you can set any number of columns and
adjust the spacing between columns

7. Applying A Theme To A Presentation
The theme name are in alphabetical order…
To create a unique appearance, you can choose new colors fot the
theme elements in the Create New Theme Colors dialog box.
This dialog box displays the theme s color palette and show you what
element each color applies.
Each theme supplies a combination of two fonts to be applied to
headings and text.
Collectively these two fonts are called a font theme.
