Slide Master and Slide Layouts: Slide Master in PowerPoint

Even if you are not aware, every presentation you create has its own Slide Master. This Master governs the default attributes like slide background, font choices, colors, and even the positioning of the placeholders in your slide. Thus if you end up with a 50 slide presentation that uses center aligned titles that you want changed to left aligned titles in a larger font size. Then you need to make this change only once within the Slide Master, and all 50 slides update at once with your new Title formatting!

Slide Master and Slide Layouts: Using Masters in PowerPoint

Every individual slide that you see within your PowerPoint deck may have its own unique content, but there’s so much consistency as far as the look of successive slides is considered.

All the formatting is taken care of by some magical behind-the-scenes intelligence within PowerPoint. Also if you print notes pages or handouts from PowerPoint, you will find that these are also formatted to synchronize with the look of your slides. Ever wonder how you can control all this intelligence? Well, the answer is the Masters that are contained within every PowerPoint presentation.
