Changing the Look of Placeholders.


For a consistent look, you won’t usually want to change the formatting of a presenta-
tion’s placeholders. However, when you want to draw attention to an entire slide or an
element of a slide, you can do so effectively by making specific placeholders stand out.
You might also want to format text boxes that you have drawn manually on a slide.

“Work with Slide Text.”
