- WordArt is a gallery of text styles and effects that you can add to text to create decorative effects in your PowerPoint slides. Some examples are shadowed, mirrored, stretched or skewed text.
- It allows you to easily make text stand out on your slides.
How to Insert WordArt
- On the Insert tab, click the WordArt button and select a style from the gallery. This will insert a text box with the WordArt style applied.
- You can also select existing text on a slide, go to the Format tab, and select a WordArt style to convert the text.
Customizing WordArt
- Once inserted, click inside the WordArt text box to edit the text.
- On the Format tab, use the WordArt Styles group to change the fill, outline and effects.
- Use the Size group to adjust the dimensions of the WordArt.
- Right-click the WordArt and use options like Send to Back or Rotate to position the text.
Key Points
- WordArt styles are theme-specific, so they will update if you change the theme.
- Use WordArt sparingly as too much can make slides look unprofessional.
- You can insert images into WordArt to create further effects.
