Text Tips• Be brief and to the point. Nobody wants to read paragraphs of

text.• Limit yourself to between three and five bullet lines per slide. This

way, the reader will not be bored and overwhelmed with all the text.

• Furthermore, limit yourself to five words per line. Think about what is the important gist of what you want to get across.

• Use lots of white space or negative space. This creates balance and helps your reader focus on the slide comfortably.

• You are the presenter—the slides should act as an enhancement for your presentation, not a crutch.

• If you want your audience to read, give them a physical handout and time to read. They cannot read paragraphs and listen to you at the same time—unless you’re reading each word aloud to them, and that is worse yet.

Text Tips

• Be brief.

• 3-5 bullets per slide.

• 5 words per line.

• Lots of white space.
