Selecting the Correct Task Pane

An Important Note: Anytime you desire to insert Clip Art into your presentation look at the bottom of the right side of the screen and you’ll see the image to the right. You can go to your clips in the Organize Clips…, or go to Clip art on Office Online.

If you do not see this Clip Art Task Pane on the right side of your screen, you can move to that Task Pane by clicking-on the small down triangle at the top left corner of the current Task Pane. In the image on the left we are in the New Presentation Task Pane. We want to go to the Clip Art Task Pane. When we click the small down triangle, a drop-down menu appears that will allow us to select Clip Art. When you click-on Clip Art, the Clip Art Task Pane will appear and you can then select either Organize clips…or Clip art on Office Online – the one you like best.

Now, let’s make the letters larger. Highlight your title (Enjoy your sandwich!) by placing your cursor at the beginning of the first word, click and hold down the left mouse button and drag it across the words, then release the left button. The Title should be highlighted it should look like the picture below. Since you are “really” in Microsoft Word when you are working with text in PowerPoint 2003, you can also place your cursor on Enjoy your sandwich! and quickly click the left mouse button three times and you will notice that the phrase is highlighted.

First, we’ll change the font for the text. Click-on the down triangle next to Arial in the button bar at the top of the screen. Use the elevator bar, on the right of the font screen that appears, and move down and select Times New Roman (see picture and arrows at right).

Next, place your cursor on the small down triangle next to a number in the button bar (when your cursor is on the number, the Text Help box will indicate Font Size – see the image and arrow on the right). Click on the down triangle and scroll down to 60 and click on 60. You text should now be larger than before.
