PowerPoint Working With Text

Format the Text!

Position the Text

Resize the Text

 

To change the color, size, style of text or to reposition the text box follow these instructions.

Step One - Format the text! Select any text on a slide by clicking and dragging over the text. With text still selected go to the second row of icons on the top of the page - text formatting options. The first will change the font, the second will change the size, others will change color, or make the text bold, italics, etc. Experiment with each. Nothing is permanent until you "save".

Step Two - The position of the text on your slide can also be changed. Select the text and an outline appears around the text box; click on the line of the and by clicking a dragging you can reposition the box.

Step Three - To resize the text box. Select the text and an outline appears around the text box; click on the line of the box and "handles" will appear. By clicking and dragging on the handles you can resize the box.
