Creating PowerPoint Outlines
When you start creating a new presentation, many users just launch PowerPoint and start creating their slides. Actually there are three common ways in which you can create slides. Yet, the best way to start creating presentation slides is not from within PowerPoint but by creating an outline in another program. Many purists say that you should not even launch PowerPoint until you have an outline in place. PowerPoint can import outlines created in many applications such as Word 2008 and TextEdit for Mac.

Interface
Here’s a quick walkthrough of the PowerPoint 2016 interface, the PowerPoint 2016 interface is quite similar to PowerPoint 2013. PowerPoint 2016 opens with a Presentation Gallery. The Presentation Gallery provides several ways to start your next presentation using a template, a Theme, a recent presentation, a not-so-recent presentation, or even a blank presentation. Once you make choices in this Presentation Gallery, you see the actual PowerPoint interface.

Text Placeholders vs. Text Boxes
We have already covered the concept of differences between text placeholders and text boxes using PowerPoint 2008 and PowerPoint 2011 on Mac. Now we will explore the same within PowerPoint 2016 for Mac. Let us start with these thoughts: Aren't text boxes and text placeholders the same? Are they really different? And why should anyone bother even if they are different? All these are valid questions, and the answers to them form one of the most important foundations in learning to
create more structured presentations in PowerPoint.
Import Outlines
Creating outlines for PowerPoint in various external applications lets you stay away from distractions in PowerPoint-land and concentrate on the structure of your slides rather than their appearance. Once you have the outline created, it's very easy to import it in the form of slides into PowerPoint. While this import process works the same way in all versions of PowerPoint, there are small interface changes from version to version. In this tutorial, we'll show you how to import
outlines in PowerPoint 2016 for Mac.
