FONT SIZE

Page 9: The dos and donts of good presentations

This is Arial 12This is Arial 18This is Arial 24This is Arial 32This is Arial 36This is Arial 44

Choose a standard (common) font like Times New Roman or Arial.

This is too small

Page 10: The dos and donts of good presentations

Avoid!!!!!!!Using small font, because your audience won’t be able to read what you have written.

The “too big size font”, it wastes your slide space.CAPITALIZE ONLY WHEN NECESSARY. IT IS DIFFICULT TO READ.

Don’t use a complicated font.

Page 11: The dos and donts of good presentations

Test the font by........

Looking at it from 2 metres away

Page 12: The dos and donts of good presentations

Use uniform font faces for Headings/Titles throughout the presentation

Use italics and bold to emphasize the text.Use colours that contrast the background.

DONT....use over-decorative fonts such as Chiller or

Old English Text.

Page 15: The dos and donts of good presentations

Using a font color that does not contrast with the background color is hard to read.

Using color for decoration is distracting and annoying.

Using a different color for each point is unnecessary

Same for secondary points

two complimentary colours.
