Summary:

The information below is taken from the Microsoft PowerPoint Version 2.00 Help file for Adding Slide Borders.

In the case of overheads, borders around the edges make them more visually appealing. Always create the border on the Slide Master so it will appear on each slide automatically, and in the same position.

To get the border centered on the slide, choose Show Guides from the Draw menu, then click on the tool that you want for the border. Put the crosshair at the intersection of the guides, hold down the CTRL key and drag outward. Holding down the CTRL key will cause the border to be centered on the slide.

See the booklet that accompanies PowerPoint, “Using PowerPoint Templates,” for some border ideas.

For more information about this topic, refer to Pages 175 and 308 of your “Microsoft PowerPoint User’s Guide.”
