Add Slide Master

This tutorial will demonstrate how to add slide master to your PowerPoint presentation.

When working with Master Slides, it's good to know the definitions of the various types:

Slide Master

The slide that stores information about the design template applied, including font styles, placeholder sizes and positions, background design, and color schemes.

 

Title Master

The slide that stores information from the design template pertaining to styles on title slides, including placeholder sizes and positions, background design, and color schemes.

 

Design Template

A file that contains styles in a presentation, including the type and size of bullets and fonts; placeholder sizes and positions; background design and fill color schemes; and a slide master and optional title.

To add a slide master by adding a new design template, on the Formatting toolbar, click Design, point to the design template you want, click the arrow, and select on of the options on the shortcut menu.
