Text
• Keep the text as brief as possible.

• Data looks better organized & easier to comprehend


if given in POINTS.

• No more than 10 lines of text (or points) per slide.

• All letters on the slide should be big enough to make


it readable even at the back of the auditorium.
Slide Background &
Readability
Choose an attractive picture (related to your topic, of
course) as the background for your TITLE slide.

For the other following slides, background and text


should be in contrasting colors.

A light background & dark print works well.

A dark background & light print also works well.

A dark background & dark print??? Not so much...

A light background & light print??? Not at all!


Graphs & Figures
 A well-documented graph or
figure is way more attractive and
better than lengthy text.

 Tables are difficult to read;


represent data graphically
whenever possible.

 A photograph often is worth a


thousand words.
