Using the templates

Customizing the text

• Universal changes to the templates should be made on the Master slide

• For proper alignment of the text bullets, customize subheadlines in slide layout mode– To do this, highlight subheadline text then select bullets and

numbering from the format list– Select none for bullets– Tab subheadline in to align with the title text– Format subheadline to 26pt Arial Bold

Typography guidelines

Subheadline – Arial Bold 26 pt

• For maximum legibility and clarity, we recommend the following typographic styles:– Use a maximum of nine bullet points per slide– Do not use end punctuation in bullets– Use only one sentence per bullet– Capitalize first word only

Typography guidelines, continued

• Type size guidelines should vary for audience size to ensure legibility of projected text

• Arial is the standard typeface for PowerPoint presentations

Charts and graphs

• Strive for clean, simple charts and graphs

• Choose high-contrast colors for optimal legibility

• Charts and graphs for on-line presentations should not use text smaller than 12 pt.

• Charts and graphs should always support content and not detract from messages

• Create charts and graphs within PowerPoint—avoid importing from another applications to keep the overall file size small.

General “Don’ts”

• Avoid gradations or blends as they detract from our objectives to communicate clarity and contrast in support of the brand

• Avoid the use of clip art

• Avoid 3-dimensional graphs, charts or diagrams unless the third dimension adds meaningful data

Printing the presentation

• The typical office printer has a resolution output of 300 dpi– Resolution is the sharpness of an image on paper,

computer screen or other mediums – Low resolution images are ideal for use in electronic

documents or printed presentations as they allow for portability via electronic mail and expedient printing on a standard office printer

• Photography resolution should be no larger than 96 dpi @ 100%
