Slide TextTry not to put too much text on one slide. If you have a lot of text on a slide the slide just goes on and on and on. People who are watching the presentation will be very busy reading what you wrote.This means that they will not pay attention to the person who is presenting. They could be missing what you say and be missing something important.Instead you should make important bullets and the speaker should fill in the rest.
•Don’t put to much information on one slide
•Don’t put too many sentences on one slide
(Note this is where you elaborate and say all the things that are on the other
side of the slide)

Font SizeUse a larger size font
So People can clearly read what you wrote.
Size 24 should be the smallest size you use.
Especially if you using a projector.
Otherwise the people in the back.
Will not be able to read this very well.
Which will defeat the purpose of the PowerPoint.
