Changing Font After the background, the font is one of the first things people sees

Font Categories Serif – A serif font is one that has serifs or the extra tails on the end of each letter. The most popular serif font is Times Roman, others include Bookman, Century, Garamond, Lucida and Palatino. Serif Fonts can be trickier to read in a slideshow. Sans-Serif – A sans-serif font does not have the serifs or extra pieces at the ends of the letters. The most popular sans-serif font is Arial, others include Calibri, Century Gothic, Helvetica, Lucida Sans, Tahoma and Verdana. A sans-serif font is easier to read, so it is best used for both title and body text. Script – A script font is one that tries to emulate handwriting. Some script fonts are Brush Script, Edwardian Script, Freestyle Script, French Script, Papyrus and Vivaldi. A script font is quite hard to read and should not usually be used on a slide since the viewer will spend too much time trying to read the words and not be able to focus on the message.

Font Size  A title should be between Size 32 and 40  Body font should be between 24 and 32 Think to yourself why this might be?

Font Effects Bold – makes the lines of the font thicker. Underline – places a line under the word. Italic – slants the tops of the letters of the font to the right. An italic font is harder to read see like this Shadow – places a dark gray shadow of each letter behind the letter slightly to the right and slightly below the letter. Shadow – places a dark gray shadow of each letter behind the letter slightly to the right and slightly below the letter. All Caps – the word is typed in all capital letters. In the past, this was an acceptable way to emphasize a word, but today all capital words are considered to be shouting at the person Word Art – this feature allows you to distort the letters of the font in a variety of ways.
