Backgrounds in PowerPoint

Let’s start from scratch and add a colorful or subtle background to a PowerPoint slide. Also, how to match a color from an image, and a few design tips about backgrounds.

Backgrounds: First steps

• If you want to start from scratch, just right-click on a blank part of the slide. Click Format Background and a menu appears on the right-hand side. You can use colors, pictures, or textures.

• Remember, this is the background of your presentation, so don’t be afraid to use white or black. Don’t let the background overwhelm your presentation.
