Join Jess Stratton for an in-depth discussion in this video Saving a presentation as a template, part of PowerPoint for Mac 2016 Essential Training.
- We've saved the design elments,…so we can have a unified theme across our presentations.…But what if we wanted to reuse some of that content?…For example, what if I want to have sections in my slides?…What if I know I will always reuse certain design elements?…Like I'll always have this title slide.…I'll always have this video slide.…I'll always have a section called Wrap Up…and I will always end my presentation…with an 'All done, time for smoothies!' slide.…
For these situations, we can save…our presentations as an actual template.…It starts by deleting the slides that we don't need…and we keep the slides and content that we do need.…So I've already done that.…I've removed all the slides that I definitely don't want.…I can even take it a step further.…For example, here's my title slide.…Right now, it's set to the Board of Directors Guide,…but not every presentation I make…is going to have that title.…
I can keep some content and remove others…but keep the placeholders.…So I'm going to take this 'Board of Directors Guide'…
