Header and footer are called header dataplaced above or below text on several or all pages of a document. Usually they contain the title of a work, part, chapter, paragraph, copyright information, company logo, page number, time or date when the slide was created, etc.
For slide Microsoft PowerPoint only a footer can be specified.
Header and footer text, unlike the rest of the headings and captions, is repeated on each slide. When you create headers and footers in Microsoft PowerPoint, you don't have to manually type this information on each slide. When you add new slides to the document, the header and footer is attached to them automatically.
You can access the headers and footers customization in Microsoft PowerPoint by clicking the Header and Footer button on the Insert tab of the ribbon. After that, the Header and Footer dialog box opens, in which there are two tabs: Slide and Notes and handouts... Let's consider the elements of each tab.
Slide dialog box Headers and footers you can customize the display of headers and footers on the presentation slide. Consider these elements:
- date and time - allows you to add date and time to the header and footer, the format of which can be set using a group of controls and drop-down lists. For example, you can choose a specific fixed date or synchronize it with the current time. You can also define how the date is displayed by choosing one of the standard methods in the drop-down list, or type the date yourself;
- Slide number - allows you to number the slides. The corresponding slide number will be added to the header;
- footer - in the installed position allows you to unlock the corresponding input field, in which you can specify an arbitrary text for the footer;
- Do not show on title slide - determines whether the header or footer will be displayed on the first slide of the presentation;
- Apply to all - fixes the changes made to all headers and footers of all slides in the presentation. Button Apply fixes the changes made only to the slide that was selected when the dialog box was opened Headers and footers.
In a similar way, you can easily number slides in automatic mode. When adding and deleting slides, the numbering will be automatically set in accordance with the new version of the presentation, which is undoubtedly very convenient. Also, a rather convenient feature is the ability to include the date and time of the slide creation directly in the slide header.
Tab controls Notes and handouts dialog box Headers and footers you can customize the display of headers and footers in the printed version of the presentation. Here PowerPoint provides slightly more customization options than in the previous case. The difference lies in the ability to add a header to the page. This is done by the flag Page header and the corresponding input field.
Pay attention to the lower right part of the dialog box Headers and footers... This displays a schematic view of headers and footers on a page or slide.
Please note that when print presentation, in addition to the headers and footers set on the tab Notes and handouts dialog box Headers and footers, your own slide headers and footers will also be printed.
- serif fonts (antiqua - serif);
- sans serif fonts;
- others - decorative (decorative), handwritten (script), etc.
- Adding body or heading text within frames,
- Adding text to a shape,
- Adding text to the label.
- To make the added text part of a shape, select the shape, and then enter text or paste from the clipboard.
- To move the added text independently of the shape, use the Insert - Text Box command to add a text field, and then enter the text or paste it from the clipboard (Fig. 3.4).
- Before creating your SmartArt graphic, consider what type and layout would work best for displaying your data. Try a few different options and find the one that best graphically illustrates the text information.
- SmartArt graphics are most effective when the number of shapes and the amount of text is not the maximum, but the minimum is sufficient to display information. Too much text can adversely affect the visual presentation of your SmartArt graphic and make it difficult to read.
- Some SmartArt graphic layouts are best suited for specific situations. For example, the Balancing Arrows layout (Link type) is designed to display two opposing ideas or concepts. Or, to display more than two ideas, switch to a different layout that has more shapes for text, such as the Simple Pyramid layout (Pyramid type).
- When working with SmartArt graphics, it is helpful to know certain keyboard shortcuts (Table 3.1).

Increase the size of the selected shape | SHIFT + UP ARROW or RIGHT ARROW |
Decrease the size of the selected shape | SHIFT + DOWN ARROW or LEFT ARROW |

When working with text in color publications, it is recommended to adhere to the following rules:
- give background and text contrasting colors. It is about the contrast of color, and not just about different brightness. For example, black letters on a red background are very difficult to read, so this combination should be avoided if possible;
- check the contrast of text and background on a monochrome image. Although this technique does not always work, in most cases, when two colors appear in contrast in a monochrome image, they will also appear in contrast in color printing;
- avoid annoying color combinations to print bulky text. For example, the combination of yellow and red is very effective for printing products labeled "New!", But such a color scheme in most other cases is inappropriate;
- avoid too light and poorly distinguishable shades. Overly light texts are problematic when printed, regardless of whether the shade looks good or bad on the slide. Fine lines with a light shade of color are poorly reproduced. It may even happen that such a color will just look like dirt on paper.
Use headers and footers to add slide numbers, time and date, company logo, presentation title or file name, presenter's name, and so on, at the top or bottom of each handout or notes page, or at the bottom of each slide.
