The main section sho ws th e current slide, w h ile on the left, slide miniatu res appear, allowing you to see the current slide in its c ontext. In the very top left co rner of the screen is t he [O ffice Button] which can be used to open or print yo ur presentation.

8 Guides, Gridlines and Rulers When creating your slides, the placeholders ha ve largely been left in their defau lt positions. Often, peo ple move them aroun d slightly, usually to cram extra in formation o nto a slide. Thi s isn’t good practice – not only do you en d up with too much o n a slide but the c onsistency of layout is lo st.
