Why Use a Header or Footer?

Headers and/or footers are used on PowerPoint slide(s) to include important information about the slides. This can be information for the presenter (or audience), such as the date this presentation was created or delivered, to brand the slides with your company name or simply to automatically place a slide number on each slide.

How to Add a Header or Footer

  1. Click on the Insert tab of the ribbon.
  2. Click on the Header & Footer button, to open the Header and Footer dialog box.
