Demonstration Slide #1 • This is a demonstration of a typical slide • You want to make sure the text is legible • Make sure the text is bright enough • Make sure the text is big enough to be seen • There should only be a few bullets for the audience to read • Smaller bullets are hard to read and cause confusion because of the indentation • Longer sentences do this as well; try not to wrap bullets like I’ve done here • This is the smallest level that is defined in the slide master • Blah blah and woof woof
Text Layout Points To Remember • Try to put necessary information only • Audience should read slide fast • You should take longer to talk to the points • Only 2-3 major points per slide • More if really needed but consider two slides • Maximum of 5 • Limit “sub-bullets” to 3 per major bullet • If you need more, put the entire thing on its own slide
Text Layout Points To Remember • Be careful using dark graphic background • Other graphics may not show up well • May be “swallowed up” by BG image This block is called a “take-away” since it is the last thing on the slide, and is what the user should remember about the slide
