PowerPoint 2013 has a number of convenient features that allow you to change the fonts on a single slide or throughout your entire presentation. By changing the fonts, you can make your presentation more attractive and highlight parts that require more attention. • Let’s review how you would change the font in your entire presentation. First, click on the DESIGN tab. Then, as seen circled in the screenshot below on the right side of the ribbon, click on the More button under Variants.

• Select Fonts and scroll down the list of available font types to find the one you prefer. Now the whole presentation will display the font type you selected. • If you have inserted individual text boxes in separate slides they will not be affected by the font change you performed above. This is because these text boxes are not part of the default text boxes in a PowerPoint presentation, so they will not inherit the preferences set in the master slide.

It supports SVG, PDF, JPEG.SKETCH and recently, EPS (finally!) formats for import and export. Vector graphic software for mac. Talk about balance. And, like all the apps mentioned in this article, it comes with no price attached. The app allows you to do everything you would expect from a vector software program: Create curves, edit paths, manage layers and use the knife function. It has more features than the latter while staying as intuitive as the former.

To change the font type of these boxes, you will need to use a different feature. In the screenshot below, you will see that there are individual text boxes sitting on top of the default text boxes on different slides. These are usually used to place emphasis on a specific part of the presentation. • To change the font type in these text boxes, you will need to use the Replace feature. First, click in the text box and check which font type is displayed.

You can do this in the HOME tab. The font type in this example is Arial. • While still in the HOME tab, click on Replace and then Replace Fonts.

• As seen in the screenshot below, a dialog box will appear asking you to select (a) which font to replace and (b) the new font you want your text boxes to display. Make sure you select the right font to replace as identified in step 5. • Next, select the new font you want your text boxes to display and click Replace. • After you close the dialog box, you will notice that all your individual text boxes display the new font you have selected. A word of caution: Once you have changed a font in your presentation, you should check whether the new font needs resizing. This is because not all fonts are equal in size (for example, size 24 in Arial font is very different from size 24 in Monotype Corsiva font).

I recently ended up converting some text in a PowerPoint presentation to vector shapes after a major corporation discovered that, of the thousands of employees who were running PowerPoint 2010, there were a few stragglers on 2003 and some of the kerned text (kerned text means the spacing between letters is adjusted) was dropping to the next lined (kerning is lost in PowerPoint 2003) Figure 1 shows the original design. Figure 2 shows what happens when someone using PowerPoint 2003 opens the file. Figure 1 Figure 2 Converting the text to vector shapes allowed us to keep the same kerning instead of forcing us to adjust it (and not look as good) for the few that were on PowerPoint 2003. Did you know that you can use PowerPoint to create vector shapes using a built-in PowerPoint tool? It’s call Merge Shapes. Merge Shapes first showed up in PowerPoint 2010, but was brought to a new level in PowerPoint 2013 when it added the “Fragment” feature.
