The functions for formatting text in PowerPoint are very
similar with other Microsoft programs, especially Microsoft Word. Select
the text you want to format and click on the Format menu -->
Font to make changes such as font size, style type and effects:
or you can use the Formatting toolbar to make one change
at a time:
Formatting Bulleted and Numbered
Lists back to top
To format a list, highlight the list or the part of the
list that you want to format and then click on Format-->Bullets
and Numbering. On the Bulleted dialog you can select the type and
color of bullets you want on your list, or even choose to use a special
character or picture that you have saved as a bullet:
If you want a numbered list, click on the Numbered tab and select
the type of numbering you want (numerical, alphabet, Roman). You can also
use the Start at feature to make the list start from a number other
than 1. This is a very handy feature especially if you have a very long
list and you want to split it into two slides.
If you don't highlight the list before making your selections,
PowerPoint will automatically apply your selections only on the line
that your cursor is when you make the selections.
