How to Insert a Watermark in MS PowerPoint (PPT)?

By Neha T Leave a Comment

Want to make your PowerPoint presentation more attractive. One of the ways to do it this is by inserting “watermark” in your PowerPoint presentation. Creating a PowerPoint presentation with the watermark makes your presentation more appealing. You can make a “picture or a text box”, as your watermark to the slides in the presentation. In this article, I used a picture to insert as a watermark in the PowerPoint presentation. So, let’s begin with the process.

Steps to Insert Watermark In a PowerPoint presentation:

Step 1: Open a file of “PowerPoint”,  on your screen. After you opened a PowerPoint, you will see the various options at the top of the file like ‘Home, Insert, Desing, Animation, SlideShow, Review and View’. You have to click on the “View” option to proceed further.

Step 2: Under View option, you have various “Presentation Views” like:

  • Normal View: – View the presentation in Normal View.
  • Slide Sorter: –  View the entire presentation in Slide Sorter view to easily rearrange the slides.
  • Notes Page: – View the Notes Page to edit the speaker notes as they will look when you print the presentation.
  • Slide Show: – To start the slide show.
  • Slide Master: – Open Slide Master view to change the design and layout of the master slides.
  • Handout Master: – Open Handout Master view to change the design and layout of printed handout.
  • Notes Master: – To open Notes Master view.

You have to click on “Slide Master” option to change the layout of a master slide.
