Data Labels in PowerPoint Charts

Data labels are indications used to quickly identify data series in a chart. There are some essential guidelines that relate to data labels. Data labels are determined from the values you input on the worksheet for the chart. Once you update those values, they get updated automatically on the chart too. You can adjust the positions of the data labels to make them easier to read in the chart. You can also change the font and font size.

Outline in PowerPoint
What is the Outline?

An outline in PowerPoint has two meanings, that are related yet different. First, an outline is the structure and storyboard of your presentation—this is what you would typically call a presentation outline. Such outlines are needed for all presentation programs, and also for video editing and playwriting programs. Secondly, an outline of a PowerPoint presentation has another specific meaning.
Creating PowerPoint Outlines in Notepad for Windows

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.

Add Headers and Footers to Slides

The terms Header and Footer typically come from word processing programs; these denote repeated elements that show at the top and bottom of every page. Headers and Footers work similarly on PowerPoint slides: the Footer is a line of text that usually appears at the bottom of a slide. Typically, the Footer area includes three placeholders: Date, Footer, and Slide number. By default, the footer with one or more of these three placeholders appears on every slide in a presentation, but you
can change that as required.
Add Headers and Footers to Notes and Handout Pages

Unlike slides which are primarily presented through a display device such as a monitor, TV screen or projector, the Notes and Handout pages in PowerPoint are essentially intended for printing. In this tutorial, we will explore how you can add Headers and Footers to make your printed Notes and Handout pages more professional-looking and useful.
