Microsoft PowerPoint (PPT) is the go-to choice for creating presentations. This series shares tips and ideas for working with PowerPoint, as well as beautiful PowerPoint templates and themes to make your presentations look stunning.<\/p>\n
Microsoft PowerPoint is the most popular presentation software on the market. Everyone from school kids to CEOs uses it to create all kinds of presentations to share with others.<\/p>\n
A PowerPoint template is a design tool to help you jumpstart that process and create a presentation with a more custom look and feel. While there are a handful of templates that come with the software, most designers avoid them because they are commonly used, making third-party free and premium PowerPoint templates a solid option.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A PowerPoint template is a collection of settings that dictate the design or content of a slide deck in the popular presentation software.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s how Microsoft<\/a> describes it: \u201cA PowerPoint template is a pattern or blueprint of a slide or group of slides that you save as a .potx file. Templates can contain layouts, colors, fonts, effects, background styles, and even content. You can create your custom templates and store them, reuse them, and share them with others.\u201d<\/p>\n You can create your own PowerPoint templates or find third-party templates with everything you need to jumpstart a presentation design.<\/p>\n One of the great things about using PowerPoint templates is that they are easy to find \u2013 and use.<\/p>\n There\u2019s actually no \u201cinstallation\u201d per se unless you want a template to become a default setting on your computer.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s how you do it:<\/p>\n If you don\u2019t need a PowerPoint template to be a default on your computer, just open the file and save a new document to start using it.<\/p>\n Now that you know how to install a PowerPoint template here are few tips to get you started with the design process.<\/p>\n The first step is customizing the design and the layout of your freshly installed PowerPoint template.<\/p>\n Many PowerPoint templates come with beautiful and professional designs. While you can use them as it is, it\u2019s a good practice to edit the design to change fonts, colors, and rearrange the shapes and images to match your brand and business.<\/p>\n If your PowerPoint template comes with image placeholders, you can easily replace the default images in the template by simply dragging and dropping your own images into the slides. It\u2019s that easy.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t forget that you can change the colors of those shapes and resize them however you like. Most premium PowerPoint templates also come with editable vector graphics like infographics, charts, and mockups as well. You can edit these graphics to customize them to your preference.<\/p>\n Master slides are one of the most useful features of PowerPoint templates. These are pre-made slide layouts you can use to create your own unique slides with creative content layouts. Simply go to the View tab and switch to Slide Master to access these layouts.<\/p>\n When using a PowerPoint template, you need to find one that matches your content. While there are a lot of great looking templates available, they won\u2019t be all the effective if the content types don\u2019t work for the type of presentations you will create.<\/p>\n Here are a few tips for finding the right PowerPoint template for you:<\/p>\n Check out these beautiful PowerPoint templates to find inspiration for your next project.<\/p>\n Be is a multipurpose PowerPoint template featuring more than 125 unique slide designs to choose from.
