Why a Standard Template
•
“I’m a PowerPoint Wiz! I don’t need
no steenking template”
– Wonderful, use your own!
•
But! Every slide of every
presentation is reviewed every
year; and the same comments
recur, over and over:
•
The goal is
consistent quality,
not uniformity
A template can’t help this
problem, but you can
4
Why a Standard Template?
This is a Bad Slide
(but alas, not uncommon)
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
The title is an example of text and background merging, and this is an example of a font that’s
too small.
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Maecenas ligula mauris, lobortis eget,
lacinia sed, pellentesque quis, lacus. Phasellus mi dolor, ullamcorper eget, imperdiet in, gravida
non, orci. Donec tincidunt urna id odio. Aliquam ornare arcu vel nunc.
This slide could actually convey some useful information if your audience could read it, but it’s
too much detail. If they’re really interested, they’ll squint trying to read it, while missing entirely
hearing you say, “Sorry, this is kind of an eye chart ...”, and your lucid explanation of its few
salient points. That’s bad.
Integer leo arcu, imperdiet at, vestibulum semper, mattis nec, dui. Maecenas pretium adipiscing
ante. Nunc tellus orci, fringilla a, mattis in, egestas eget, risus. Ut adipiscing facilisis risus. Nulla
tempus elit in urna. Fusce sed turpis nec purus venenatis facilisis.
And, the more text you put on a slide, the more inclined you will be to read it. Don’t do it. You
know your material; explain it. Maintain eye contact with your audience. If you need a clue,
glance at the monitor on the desk, not at the screen behind you. You did create the
presentation, right?
Use bullets, not narrative; this whole template (not just this page) is way too verbose, because
it’s for you to read, not for me to present.
And, of course, every unreadable slide deserves an unreadable graphic:

Fonts
• Use big, sans-serif fonts (24-pt Arial Bold)
– These fonts could be a little smaller, but not much
(20-pt Arial Bold)
– Serif fonts are harder to read at any given size and
resolution (20-pt Times New Roman)
•
Use big, sans-serif fonts (18-pt Arial Bold)
– Unlikely you’d want anything smaller than this (16-pt Arial)
– Also, serif fonts are harder to read at any given size and resolution (16-pt
TNR)
•
Use standard fonts
– Arial or Tahoma; not Helvetica
– If you must use non-standard fonts (but why??), then embed them:
• File | Save As | Tools | Save Options … | Embed True Type Fonts
(18-pt Tahoma)
• This may cause font copyright problems in PowerPoint 2003!
7
Backgrounds
• Dark text on light background is strongly preferred for
projection
– In recent years, our template used light text on a dark
background,
• We routinely encountered projection problems
• Dark text on light background is more likely to result in what
you see on the projector resembling what you saw on your
monitor
– We turn down the lights during your presentation, and the dark
text on light background projects very well
8
Transitions and Animations
Some people find PowerPoint’s fancy
transitions and animations annoying,
distracting, and obnoxious
Use them sparingly if at all!
This slide has
animations; preview
with Slide Show

Graphics
• Graphics are great!
– If effective, they convey lots
of information in a small
space
– Graphics for presentation
must usually be simpler than
in documents and reports
– Information must be
readable if the text is
significant to the purpose,
as here …

Graphics
• … but sometime graphics convey
notional information where the form is
relevant, but the text is not
• If you’re sure, then have at it
•
Remodeling must start with a
detailed & scaled plan
11
Video Resolution
• Projectors will have WXGA (1280 x 768) resolution; maybe less than what you’re used to
in your posh headquarters or on your WUXGA laptop
• Further info can be found on the AV/Computer Support Form
• So: preview, one way or another ...
• Better than nothing:
– In PowerPoint’s Normal view, resize slides
(View | Zoom) to about XGA size
• Better:
– Change your display
resolution to XGA and
preview in Slide Show
– Start | Control Panel |
Display | Settings
• Best:
– Bring your presentation
up on an WXGA projector
and ask someone else to
look at it

General Thoughts
• You’re probably the most knowledgeable person
in the room on your topic, and certainly the most
enthusiastic
• In the limited time available:
– You can’t present the entire paper
• Introduce your topic at a level all attendees can understand, not
just the cognoscenti. You’ll touch a wider audience.
• Choose one or two interesting aspects to highlight & explain,
and present them
– Motivate people to read your paper
• Have fun; if you don’t enjoy your presentation, no
one else will
– Of many choices available, attendees chose to attend
your presentation; vindicate their decision!
15
Practice
•
•
Of course you’re a good presenter!
If there were a simple way to be even better,
would you take the opportunity?
There is! Practice this Presentation!
•
Practice rooms are available
– Sign up on-line before the Conference, or on
the sign-up sheets outside each practice room
when you arrive
– All presentations are on
all practice-room computers
– Your Bird Dog and Session Chair would be
delighted to attend; invite them
