Make a Theme the Default
for New Presentations
CHAPTER
8
By default, a new presentation has a blank background and uses the Calibri font in varying sizes
and weights for the various placeholders. If you have a theme that you use often, you can
make that theme the default for new presentations so it is automatically applied to future blank
presentations. This gives you a fast start in designing a new presentation. If the default theme is not
right for any particular presentation, you can always change it to one you prefer.
