Ok, so let's talk about fonts. How often have you heard a presenter start a sentence with the words 'for those of you that can't see this slide it says.....! In my opinion this should never happen. He are my rules for slide fonts (power point, Prezi, keynote) Use sans serif fonts (the ones without the 'tails' and 'feet' eg ariel, Tahoma and verdana as opposed to serif fonts such as bookman, palatino and time new roman Avoid stift fonts eg John handy, staccato Title font should be between 36 and 44 points Body font should be between 24 and 32 points Stay away from BOLD as this is considered shouting Underlining now means a hyperlink so again stay away from this Italic and shadow are also hard to read Please, please, please don't have lots of letter and word effects eg flying and disintegrating letters. It's not pleasant for the audience and they will switch off to the message you are delivering. Bullet points - keep them consistent and remember a space between the bullet and the first word http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0081KT2FA Www.dragontoothtraining.co.uk
