Are you using PowerPoint Header and Footer Wisely?



The PowerPoint header and footer feature can ease your work, how?

The information you enter in the headers and footers appear on every slide. They often include information such as the presentation title, slide number, date, and name of the presenter. Use the slide masters to place header and footer information on your slides, handouts, or notes pages.

  • From the Insert tab, in the Text group, click the Header & Footer icon.
