PowerPoint has a number of predesigned templates. They control the background
image and color scheme; text size, location, and color; bullets and much
more.
You can apply a template design at any time. You can also change the design
by applying another design template at any time.
The design on ALL slides will be changed if the template is changed.
To Apply a Design:
New Presentation
a. In the "Create a new presentation
using" window, select "Template."
b. Pick a design from the "New
Presentation" menu.
By clicking once on each design name, you can preview the design
in the window to the right. Double click or "OK"
if you wish to apply the design to the presentation.
At this time, you could also select some prepared presentations
for specific purposes by clicking the "Presentations"
tab at the top and selecting one.
In an Existing Presentation
a. Select "Apply
Design" from the "Common
Tasks" floating palette or from the toolbars
(whichever version you are using).
