Basic Grid for Powerpoint Presentations

Prepared for use in preparing presentations at the Ross School of Business, University of MichiganApril, 2008

A grid enables you to divide space into regular units. These units will structure information to provide clarity.

Grid

The grid lines can be grouped so that they can be put on a page and quickly removed as a unit. Select all the grid lines and then press Control/Shift/G to group them together.

Grid

This grid was created on a PC with fonts that came with the computer. They are not carefully considered but they do work together. Better font pairings can be chosen from purchased fonts. Font families with a variety of styles (regular, bold, italic, etc) make the best choices for good typography.

Fonts on this template

Examples of Zones (Times New Roman Bold 20 pt)Subtitle (Times New Roman 20 pt regular)
