TYPES OF FONTS
All computer fonts can be divided into four groups: serif serif chopped calligraphic decorative
Slide 6
Serif fonts
Some fonts have small serifs at the ends of the letters. When reading, the eye "clings" to them. Serifs facilitate the visual perception of letters, which means the reading process. Serif fonts are used in books, textbooks, and other publications with long lines.

ROLLED FONTS
Sliced \u200b\u200bfonts are used in newspapers and magazines, where the text is in short lines (in several columns).
The text of this slide is in two columns and is in serrated type.

Text version
On PowerPoint presentation slides, text boxes can be globally categorized into two types:
- Text placeholders. They are bulleted by default, but you can translate them to plain text or numbered placeholders. Placeholders are added to the slide at the design stage of the slide layout, or when adding information to the slide in outline mode (we will consider the first and the second later).
- Plain text fields. Added from the tab "Insert" / group "Text" / "Text". Also, ordinary text can be inscribed in almost any shape that has an internal cavity (rectangle, oval, triangle, etc.).
Visually, text fields of both types can be reduced to the same form so that it will be impossible to distinguish between them, so what is the fundamental difference? The fundamental difference is that text entered into a text placeholder will appear in the outline, but text entered into a simple shape will not.
In addition, text entered in regular text boxes or shapes, i.e. not in placeholders will not change its position and formatting when the slide layout changes.
Add text boxes to PowerPoint
The text placeholders that participate in the structure are added to the slide layout during the layout creation stage (we will cover it in the sixth lesson). However, even if your layout does not include a placeholder text, you can switch your presentation to outline mode and enter text in the slide pane.
Placeholder text in outline mode is entered by following rules: the title is entered first, the transition to the next placeholder is done by pressing Ctrl + Enter (clicking on the last placeholder will start a new slide with the same layout), if you need to make a line break in the current placeholder, then use Shift + Enter.
The Enter key works differently depending on where it was pressed: after entering the title, a new slide will begin (if you accidentally clicked, you can press Tab, then the new slide will be deleted, and you will go to editing the text in the placeholder), if you press Enter, when you enter text in a placeholder, it will simply start a new paragraph in the text placeholder.
All text entered in outline mode in the slide panel will be represented by a bulleted list by default; this can be corrected already on the slide itself when editing, or the marker can be removed when designing a layout.
Adding the second type of inscriptions - ordinary text blocks, is done using the "Inscription" command from the "Insert" tab, or, as already noted, inserting a shape and adding text to it.
Using auto-fit text
By default, text placeholders are able to change the font size so that it completely fits within the borders of the text, at the same time, if you add a new simple text box, the box sizes there adjust to the text, and finally, if you add a shape and write text into it, there text and shape "live" independently of each other, in other words, the text can go beyond the boundaries of the shape.
The user does not need to be limited to the default parameters, this setting can be controlled. This is done from the sidebar Shape Format / Text Options / Text Boxor ../Shape parameters / Size and properties / Inscription.
There are 3 settings in total that work in conjunction with the " Wrap text in a shape by words“, Creating 6 options for placing text in the label.
If the option is enabled:
- Without auto-fit - the text can go beyond the bounds of the figure only in the vertical plane, i.e. down.
- Shrink on overlay - font size decreases as you type text that does not fit into the shape, you don't have to worry about using Enter to start a new line.
- - the size of the shape is adjusted to the text in the vertical plane, i.e. the shape does not change in width, but changes in height, the font size is fixed.
If the option is disabled:
- Without auto-fit - if the text in the field will not fit, then it will simply start to go beyond the boundaries both vertically and horizontally.
- Shrink on overlay - the text will shrink only when it will not fit vertically, at the same time, horizontally the text will be able to go beyond the frames.
- Resize shape to fit text - the size of the shape adjusts to the text both in width and height, while if the text goes beyond the slide, then it goes out of the frame along with the shape.
In addition, for text placeholders, when the text does not fit with the specified parameters, the AutoFit Options pop-up command appears in the lower left corner, but there you can only switch between No AutoFit and Shrink On Overlay.
Formatting labels
When a text block is selected (by clicking on its border), formatting elements are available to the user. The first thing you should pay attention to is the ability to rotate the field itself to an arbitrary angle, simply by clicking on the curled arrow on top of the block and turning it with the mouse. If you hold down Shift during such a rotation, then the figure will rotate discretely by 7.5 degrees, this is convenient if the inscription needs to be rotated 45 or 90 degrees.
You can use the Modify Shapes command in the Insert Shapes group on the Format tab to change a rectangular text box shape to any shape that has an internal cavity. You can apply preset styles to shapes, or you can customize the parameters individually, this is done using the Shape Styles group.
The second important point is that the formatting of any inscription can be divided into formatting the shape and the text, just such a separation is present when you call the Format Shape panel from the context menu along the border of the inscription, or a special triangular arrow of any group on the additional Format tab.
The third important point is the formatting of the text caption (both a placeholder and a simple one) and the formatting of any shape is absolutely no different, for this reason, here we will not dwell on formatting in detail.
Preserving Formatting for Future Labels
If you are using generic formatting for labels, it makes sense to keep this formatting as the default formatting, especially since this is extremely easy to do.
First, you insist on formatting both the shape itself and the text inside it: fill, effects, text color inside, font, horizontal and vertical alignment, auto-fit options, etc. Then the context menu is simply called up and the option "Set as default text field" is selected.
That's it, now when you insert a new text caption on a slide, it will already have a predefined formatting.
- The basics of formatting text in PowerPoint
Video version
Text version
Formatting in PowerPoint is a change appearance objects that are present on the slide. It can be text, drawing, diagram, etc. In the case of a presentation, formatting the elements correctly is essential to a successful presentation.
If we compare PowerPoint with the word processor Word, then the font settings are almost the same, but from the paragraph settings there are only basic parameters and there is no way to control text styles at all. There are styles for text boxes, but this already applies to formatting shapes.
The "Home" tab is responsible for formatting the text, or more precisely, the "Font" and "Paragraph" groups of this tab.
Font group on Home tab In the font group, the key parameter is a drop-down list of fonts. The list contains all the fonts that are on the system. Later in this lesson, we will add new fonts to the system, as well as learn how to embed fonts in the presentation itself.
By the way, what is a symbol and a font, how the font size relates to the actual sizes in metric units, you can find out from. Here we will leave the drawing from this lesson.
Next to the drop-down list of fonts there is a resizing command. you can specify both the exact size and slightly increase / decrease, selecting the optimal size.
At the bottom of the group there are commands: bold, italic, make text underlined or strikethrough, set character spacing and change the case of a word. You can also change both the font color and the selection text (marker).
The listed commands are also available in the "Font" dialog box, here you can also adjust some parameters more precisely, and the most popular font design commands are also on the mini-toolbar.
If you need to reverse the changes made, then you should use the "Clear Formatting" command
Changing the font style
Despite the fact that in PowerPoint you can change the font settings by making the text bold, italicized, underlined, or strikethrough, as well as adding a drop shadow effect, or changing the color, you cannot save the settings made here in styles, as in the same Word or Excel.
Therefore, speaking about font style in PowerPoint, here we mean not a saved set of design parameters, but simply applied to a specific section of text.
Using the Format Painter tool Sample format
At the same time, if you have worked hard to select the size of the font, its color, adjusting other parameters, then these settings can be easily transferred using the "Format by Sample" tool.
The format by the sample is located on the "Home" tab at the very beginning of the ribbon, the "Clipboard" group, you can also find it on the pop-up mini-toolbar, and if you are used to working with keyboard shortcuts, then a hot combination for copying the design and applying on the new site Ctrl + Shift + C, Ctrl + Shift + V, respectively.
Select the area-donor formatting, click "Format by Sample" and click on the area that should take over the original formatting.
If you need to copy formatting from one section, and then apply not on one, but several, then you should press the button of the "Format by Sample" tool twice, and then click on those sections where you need the same formatting. While copying the formatting, you can navigate through the slides, and at the end you should press the Esc key, or again click on the command "Format by Sample".
Adding custom fonts
By default, many fonts are installed on Windows, but the desire to create perfect presentation choosing beautiful fonts, custom fonts can make your presentation stand out.
A non-standard font is a font that is not installed by default on the system.
Before using custom fonts, you need to understand two important points:
- if you plan to show the presentation on another computer, then these fonts must also be installed on it, otherwise the system will pick up a standard replacement and the appearance will be lost;
- not all fonts support Cyrillic, although it is more correct - not all fonts support all languages. If you find a nice typography in English, it doesn't have to support Russian.
At the same time, there is a way to open office documents and presentations, in particular, on computers without installed non-standard fonts, for this you need to embed the fonts in the document. To embed fonts in a presentation, on the "Save" tab in the PowerPoint options, check the Embed fonts in file, if you plan to change the presentation, you should check the option "Implement all signs".
Where to look for non-standard fonts?
Some fonts can be paid, but there are quite a few even free ones. Google offers an excellent font matching tool: https://fonts.google.com/.
Here you can enter text that should be formatted in a specific font, you can filter by font types, and also specify the supported languages. In addition, a very convenient sorting, with which you can find out which fonts are popular.
After choosing the font, click on "+", go to the tab additional settings and download the archive.
After that, unzip the fonts, select and click install.
After that, you can restart the application and use non-standard fonts in your work.
In the sixth lesson of designing a presentation theme, we'll come back to the question of correctly defining and using fonts.
- Formatting paragraphs and lists
Video version
Text version
Text in PowerPoint is placed in text boxes, custom placeholders, or shapes that can move freely around the slide. It is impossible to simply enter, as, for example, in Word, text without creating a block for it in PowerPoint. The ability to format paragraphs is minimized, as you can see if you open the Paragraph dialog box. 
On the one hand, there are all the necessary parameters: alignment setting, indentation of both the first line and the entire text, spacing, and on the other hand, there is no way to save sets of styles, you can only use the tool "Format by Sample".
On the interface ribbon in the "Paragraph" group there are commands that overlap with the dialog box, and there are several unique ones.
And with the help of the ribbon and the dialog box, you can adjust the alignment: left, center, right, or stretch to the width of the text block, set the indent for all text in the block and set the standard line spacing parameters.
Only the ribbon can break text into columns, change the direction of the text (for example, by placing the text vertically on a PowerPoint slide), and set the text alignment in the text box to the top, center, or bottom.
Unique options for the dialog box are setting the first line indent, setting the spacing before and after the paragraph, and the exact value of the line spacing.
Tab
Tab Is a tool for aligning text in lines. The Tab button allows you to customize the type and position of tabs. In addition, you can switch the type of tabs on the ruler on the left. (If you have disabled the ruler, check the "Ruler" checkbox on the "View" tab)
There are 4 types of tabs in PowerPoint:
- left-handed tab - used by default and aligns text to the left relative to the tab stop;
- center tab - aligns the text in the center relative to the tab stop;
- right-handed tab - aligns the text to the right relative to the tab stop;
- tab delimiter - aligns the text to the separator. It is usually used to align numbers with respect to the decimal separator in numbers.
To set a tab stop, either enter a value in numbers in the Tabs dialog box and click the Set button. The new tab stop will appear in the window, and its type will be displayed with a radio button. Or you can select a type on the ruler on the left and click on the desired position on the ruler, approximately indicating the place, grabbing the tabulation icon, you can move it to the left or right, and pulling down from the ruler – remove tab stop... If there are many tabs, it is better to remove them from the dialog box with the appropriate buttons.
Lists in PowerPoint
There are two types of lists available in PowerPoint: numbered and bulleted. The latter are also called shootouts. Any of these lists can be either single-level or multi-level, with a different type of numbering for each level.
To start a list, select its type on the interface ribbon. If you click not on the icon itself, but on the drop-down list next to it, then you can select the type of marker (dash, dot, birdie or your own) or numbers (Arabic, Roman, letters, etc.). At the same time, in the live view mode, the marker in the list will change to the one on which the cursor is simply hovering.
Lists in PowerPoint, in fact, are paragraphs with a number or bullet at the beginning, and each subsequent level is set using the Tab key (but this is not a tab, in the sense that we considered earlier), if you need to return to a higher level, the combination is pressed Shift + Tab. This combination, by the way, also works with lists in Word.
By default, the next level will have the same number (or marker) as the previous one, so if you need a different type of numbering for a certain level, you will have to select it in the drop-down command on the ribbon. If you select the command below "List…", then you can further customize the color, or set your own marker type.
In PowerPoint, when you design a slide layout (covered in Lesson 6) and insert text placeholders for content, that text, by default, is entered as a bulleted list. In order to turn a bulleted list into a regular paragraph, you must, so to speak, "wring out" the list button on the ribbon. Moreover, if you have a bulleted list, then you should click on the command of the bulleted list, if numbered - then numbered, otherwise you will simply switch the types of lists.
This switching of a list to a regular paragraph works not only in placeholders, but also in regular text boxes or shapes, and works for each level of the list separately. For example, you can make a 3-level list with a numbered 1st level, make the second level without a marker, and make the third bulleted.
It remains only to add that the already entered text can be numbered, it is enough to select it and select the marker, and press the Tab key to select the level for the selected text.
- Check spelling
Video version
Text version
In the tab "Review" focused tools that will allow you to check the content for errors, choose synonyms, if necessary, translate into another language and adjust the language settings of the presentation. 
Setting Spelling in the Review Tab in PowerPoint
The spelling checker is simple enough. Office has a dictionary with words of certain languages, if a word is not in the dictionary, then it is underlined with a wavy red line. Calling up the context menu on a word, you can choose the option to correct it or add a new word to your dictionary.
You can view the list of installed dictionaries, as well as set your own dictionary in PowerPoint options on the "Spelling" tab, the "Custom Dictionaries" command. Also, if you start creating powerPoint presentation, or write text in Word in an unknown language, the application will ask you to install additional dictionaries. Dictionaries are not installed separately for each application, but for Office as a whole, so by installing the dictionary in PowerPoint, you will automatically have spell check in Word and vice versa.
IN spell checker in PowerPoint you need to understand the following:
Spelling errors in presentationsthat are underlined with a red wavy line will not be underlined during the slideshow. This is important when there are abbreviations in your presentation that PowerPoint does not understand. There is no need to add all the words to the dictionary just for the sake of PowerPoint not pointing out mistakes during the presentation.
Spell check can be disabled... Hiding errors is possible in the PowerPoint settings on the "Spelling" tab, here you can adjust the grammar check settings, but it's better not to use this parameter again, otherwise you won't have time to remember how the presentation will be filled with errors.
If multilingual presentation, then unfamiliar words will be underlined, you should not add them to the main dictionary, you need to place the cursor on the word and specify the language for it by clicking on the language indicator on the status bar.
You can force spell check in your presentation, going through all the errors, using the Spelling command on the Review tab, or by using the F7 key. At the bottom of the sidebar, you can specify the language of the underlined word.
Flashcards
The so-called memory cards, look at the card and try to answer, by clicking on the card, the correct answer will be displayed. Memory cards are good for memorization key positions lessons. All lessons in this course are provided with memory cards.

Change the appearance of slides
Formatting text is one of the main steps in creating professional presentation... A well-chosen font and a variety of text effects that PowerPoint allows you to set improve the presentation's appearance and make it more attractive and visual.
When setting formatting options, you should ensure consistency in the design of all slides in your presentation and do not use different fonts or many selection methods on the same slide.
The basic techniques for formatting text in PowerPoint are the same as in Word. PowerPoint provides a variety of tools to format selected text:
- - tools of the Formatting panel; - the Font command of the Format menu;
- - tools of the Animation Effects panel;
/ - Microsoft WordArt application tools. /
Characters entered in a text box are assigned the formatting options set for that field. As a rule, information on slides is presented in the form of bulleted lists, so many auto-markup contains text boxes designed to create such lists. When you enter text in a field that previously displayed the "Click enters text" prompt, each key press creates a new bullet point.
To change the default formatting options for a field, you must mark it and use the commands on the Format menu. The first six commands on this menu allow you to change the font, size, color, style, alignment, line spacing, and other text attributes. The formatting toolbar buttons are also used to change formatting.
Copying object or text attributes
Object attributes (for example, fill color and autoshape frame) can be copied and applied to another object. You can copy only text attributes (font, color, size, etc.) and apply them to other text.
Copying the appearance and style of text
- 1 Select the text whose style you want to copy.
- 2 Click the Format Painter button and select the text to which this formatting is applied.
Note Font and font size cannot be copied into text created with the WordArt tool from the Draw panel.
Add, change, and remove a drop shadow or relief in text
There are three ways to create shadow text and embossed text. First, text with a shadow can be written directly using the Drop Shadow button on the Formatting toolbar. This method does not allow you to change shadow characteristics such as offset or color. The second way is to add a drop shadow to an unpainted object that contains text. In this case, the text forms a shadow with the object parameters that can be changed. The third method is based on using the WordArt tool on the Drawing toolbar to insert a special text effect: a drawing object that contains text.
Adding shadow to text
Select the text to which the shadow is added.
Instead of the Drop Shadow button on the Draw toolbar, use the Drop Shadow button on the Format toolbar. The Drop Shadow tool creates shadows on objects.

Consider Paint, a graphics editor that is often used to create screenshots. A screenshot is a screenshot, i.e. computer generated image. The Paint editor is a program for creating and editing bitmap drawings. The figure shows the interface of the Paint editor.Figure 1 shows the Editor interface
Paint 
The editor provides a menu bar, toolbar, and color palette for creating and editing drawings. In order to use any tool, you need to click on the corresponding icon, then move the pointer to the working field. The editor can work with extension files: bmp, dib, JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG.
To set the background color and the color of the picture, click on the icon of the main color and background color.
to set the main color, left-click on the color on the palette;
to set the background color, right-click a color in the palette.
Next, you need to launch Paint, and select the Paste command from the Edit menu, the contents of the current window (if you pressed Alt + Prit Screen) or the entire screen (if you pressed the Print Screen key) will appear in the Paint window.
If you want to save the current window, then you need to save this image File / Save, in the dialog window specify the name, file type (bmp, dib, JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG) and select the disk and folder for storage. If you want to select the necessary fragment of the screen to save, then for this you need to click on the "Selection" icon on the toolbar, and the mouse pointer will change to a cross.
Select the graphic element you are interested in, and in the edit menu, select Cut, then in the File menu, select the New command, the dialog box "Save changes to the Untitled file" will open, select - No.
Figure 2 shows the Paint dialog box.
Then you need to do Edit / Paste, and the selected fragment of the picture will appear in the Paint working window. After that, you need to save this picture: File / Save, in the dialog window specify the name, file type (bmp, dib, JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG) and select the disk and folder for storage.

Formatting labels, pictures and drawings
Dialog box format. The Format dialog box offers the most complete possibilities for formatting graphic objects.
In order to activate the Format dialog box, you must do the following:
select an object by clicking on it. To select an object behind the text, you must first click the Select Objects button on the Draw toolbar;
select the AutoShape, Text Box, Picture, WordArt command from the Format menu. The command name depends on the type of the selected object. The Format dialog box opens. The window name will correspond to the type of the selected object.
Figure 6 shows the "Format AutoShape" dialog box
On the tabs of the dialog box, you must select the formatting options:
Colors and Lines: Select a wrap style and select a color and fill method, color, line type and thickness.
Size: Change the size, scale, and rotation.
Position: Select a wrapping style and horizontal alignment.
Pattern: For pictures only - crop pictures, select their color, brightness, and contrast.
Caption: Caption only - changes the margins between the text and the caption frame.
Change the color and type of graphics
The group of buttons on the Drawing toolbar is designed to change the color and fill pattern of graphic objects, the color and type of lines, the font color, as well as to give the object a shadow or volume effect.
Fig.5 shows a fragment of the Drawing toolbar - "Group of buttons for changing the color, shadow effect and volume of objects"
^
Creating graphics in a document
Graphic editor Word, allows you to quickly build simple drawings. The possibilities provided by the picture editor are very similar to those found in any other picture editor. To edit objects and change their colors, fills, borders and other parameters, use the Drawing toolbar.
Fig.3 shows a fragment of the Drawing toolbar - "Autoshapes".
There are three main categories of WORD graphic objects:
Autoshapes are standard graphic objects;
WordArt is used to create curly text;
The Label object is used for non-standard insertion of small texts.
After inserting graphic objects into the document, the drawing process takes place. For drawing or working with graphic objects there is a group of buttons: Drawing and Selecting objects.
Figure 4 shows a fragment of the Drawing toolbar - "Drawing"
In the process of actions (group, order, move, resize and rotate, snap, position text in objects, etc.), a picture is created.
The basic principle of working with graphic objects is the same as when working with text in a document: first, you should select the object, and then perform some actions with it.
The process of creating drawings from graphic objects consists of three main steps:
Inserting drawing objects into a document;
Drawing or performing certain actions;
Modifying drawn objects.
autoshapes;
lines;
arrows;
rectangle;
oval;
inscription;
add a WordArt object.
