Hello again and welcome back to our course on PowerPoint 2013. In the previous section, we started our first brand new presentation and we setup the slide size and orientation and a background color.

In this section, we’re going to start to put some content into this presentation. Now the subject of the presentation is creating our first presentation. Now we created this presentation initially by choosing Blank presentation and the single slide that we get we can select on the left there and the slide itself is shown here. Now I didn’t actually type in the words that you can see there. They are what are called placeholders, and the Click to add title and Click to add subtitle are indications that I can now enter some text on to this first slide. And literally if I click on the title, it appears to disappear. The cursor appears and I can type in my title. Now my title is going to be My First Presentation. Now when you’re using placeholders, that’s basically what happens. You click within the placeholder and you type the text. Let’s try that with the subtitle, and there we are. That’s the first slide ready. Note that as I’ve typed the thumbnail on the left, there it’s been updated to reflect what I’ve typed and that while I’m working on the slide, here you can see on the Ribbon that I’ve got a drawing tools contextual tab, a format tab as well.

So how about a second slide now? Let’s go to the Home tab and we’ve got in the Slides Group a New Slide button. The button is in two parts. The top part is the new slide, the lower part gives us the option to choose, as you’ll see in a moment. I’m just going to click on the top one for the moment. And if I do note that although it appears as a second slide here, the placeholders have a different layout to the one that I had on that title slide. But let’s fill this in anyway and I’ll talk about that issue in just a moment. So put a title on the second one, then click in to add some text. Note that in this case the text is in the form of a bulleted list.

So having typed Design tab, I’m going to now type and you can see what I’ve done here. I’ve said the first thing I did was to set the slide size so I went to the Design tab and the Customize Group and then just to remind myself on the Design tab in the Customize Group it was the Slide Size command. So there we are. That summarizes how we set the slide size.
