When you apply one of The Microsoft ready made templates
("Format" >> "Slide Design..." in PowerPoint XP,
"Format" >> "Apply Design" in the previous versions),
what are you actually applying to your presentation?
Or when you decide to save a presentation as a template, what
kind of information are you actually saving inside that file?
In a few words, what type of information, settings and format
are stored and saved in a PowerPoint template file?
Well, a template contains the following info:
a) Slide size and orientation
(which you can change from "File" >> "Page
layout")
b) Color Scheme:
(including colors for default fill, line, shadow, text etc.) -
which you could modify (in PPT 97 and 200) from "Format"
>>
"Slide Color Scheme"
