Use Design Templates to Coordinate Your PowerPoint Presentation

Design templates are used to coordinate the slides in your presentation and give a unified look overall.
Apply a Design Template to a PowerPoint Presentation
Using Design Templates in Microsoft PowerPoint gives a uniform look to your presentation. All slides will look like they are part of a package.
Copy a PowerPoint Design Template to Another Presentation
Sometimes it is quicker to copy a design template that is applied to another presentation than to find it in the list of PowerPoint design templates. This way you can copy the complete color scheme that may have been altered from the original design template in PowerPoint
Animation - Copy PowerPoint Design Template Formatting
Copy an existing PowerPoint design template formatting or a modified design template color scheme to a new PowerPoint presentation.
Hiding Background Images for Printing in PowerPoint
Hide background images on PowerPoint slides to make printed handouts clearer. Hiding background images will make text stand out on the slides.
Create Templates in PowerPoint - Master Slides in PowerPoint
Make a custom design template by editing the Master Slide. Design templates are created by applying formatting choices to the Slide Master and Title Master and saving the PowerPoint presentation as a template file.
Add Slide Numbers to PowerPoint Slides
Each slide in a PowerPoint presentation can display the slide number.
