How do you create default font in PowerPoint?

RE: Default font

Dear Claire

Thank you for attending Excel Advanced!! I hope you enjoyed the course and benefited from it.

Please follow these steps to set your font as default!!! ( this could include just the font type or the size, colour, etc...

On the Standard toolbar, click New.

Choose View > Master > Slide Master.

On the Slide Master make the changes that you want to be reflected in every new presentation.

Close the Master View by pressing Close Master View.

On the File menu, click Save As.

In the Save as type box, select Design Template

In the File Name box, type blank, and then click Save.

NB:Please leave the default location as Template folder

Close the template.

Note: You must name the template "blank.pot" regardless of what language version of PowerPoint you have and which language is installed. Also, the variation "blank presentation.pot" will not work.

I hope this has answered your query.

If this has answered your query then I would request you to please mark the question as resolved!! If not and you have a specific question related to this then please post it as a new question and we should be able to provide you the solution for it!!

Kindest Regards

PowerPoint tip:

Doodling on your active slides

To add a little graphic interest during a presentation, switch on the Pen with Ctrl+P. Now your mouse can be used to draw on the slide. Ctrl+E switches on the Eraser to rub things out, and Ctrl+A brings back the Arrow.

At the end of the presentation you have the option to save or discard any un-erased doodlings.
