MasterView International Creating and Managing Effective PowerPoint Presentations for International Audiences ______________________________________________________________ MasterView International by IKONOS New Media January 15th, 2002 Issue #8 Executive Editor: Simone Luchini Editor-in-Chief: Luigi Canali De Rossi _______________________________________________________________ This issue's theme: *DESIGN AND READABILITY*
============================================================== Welcome back, dear MasterView readers and Happy New Year. I have a pocket full of gold, silver, and copper coins: the new Euro! How do you get along with it? Do you already miss your old currency? By the way, speaking of Euro, let me share with you a useful shortcut: if you want to insert the Euro symbol in a Windows 98/ME edition, the keyboard combination is Ctrl+Alt+5. Let me share with you some of what is happening behind "MasterView". Three very good things have happened: 1) The newsletter has almost reached 1,000 subscribers; 2) A few web sites have started linking back to MasterView (http://www.powerpointanswers.com/, http://www.rdpslides.com/pptfaq/FAQ00210.htm, http://www.ellenfinkelstein.com/favorite_links.html, http://www.cemca.org/newsletter/sep2001/sep2001.htm#07); 3) MasterView has reached the first positions when searching through Google for "Presentations for International Audiences". I am glad of this slow but continuous growth of popularity and success, and I wanted to thank you all for your support. I would really appreciate to hear from you for critiques, questions, feedback and ideas. MasterView has been going out for 8 months only, and it seems to have a good future already. Simone Luchini MasterView Executive Editor ============================================================== 1) *What are "Serif" and "Sans-serif" fonts?* ============================================================== Fonts are specific variations (like italic, bold, Roman) of one major typeface. Times is a typeface. Arial is a typeface. Arial bold is a font. For example, the typeface family Helvetica includes more than 30 different fonts among which we can list Helvetica, Helvetica Condensed, Helvetica Compressed, Helvetica Extended, Helvetica Black, Helvetica Light and many others plus all the fonts derived from the declination of each of these into the plain (Roman), italic (oblique), bold, and bold italic styles. Technically speaking, each one of the above is a different font. In the every day use and normal language we have come to accept the word "font" also as a substitute of the word "typeface". Fonts can be subdivided in two general visual categories: "Serif" and "Sans-serif". Serif fonts have curls, small appendixes at the end of each letter. From the online dictionary of Merriam-Webster's "any of the short lines stemming from and at an angle to the upper and lower ends of the strokes of a letter". These appendixes have the purpose of helping the reader's eye connect all the sequence of letters. Serif fonts are mostly used in newspapers and books when text is small and tight. Serif fonts include: Times, Palatino, Garamond, Century Schoolbook, Book Antiqua, and all other fonts characterized by tiny appendixes at the end of their forms. Sans-serif fonts (from the French word "sans" that means without) are all those fonts which have letters with straight lines and no curls or appendixes. Their letterform is neat, defined, clean. They are mostly used for titles, captions, callouts, and in general any time there is not too much text and readability is an issue. Sans-serif fonts are definitely more readable than Serif fonts. Sans-serif fonts include: Arial, Helvetica, Futura, Tahoma, Avant-Garde, Univers, Century Gothic, Verdana, and all other fonts characterized by clean letterforms. When you are about to choose the fonts for your presentation, always remember the distinction between Serif and Sans-serif. Prefer Sans-serif fonts for titles and text boxes, and any time your presentation needs to be readable from far. As a general tip that you will find useful, when you are about to choose a font style, always remember that not all the fonts can be properly displayed on different operating systems (e.g. Windows, Macintosh or Unix), different printers (e.g. ink-jet or laser printer), different browsers (Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator). Let's make it easier to understand: if I have installed on my laptop some "cool" fonts, let's say from Corel or Adobe, I see them displayed in the drop-down list, and they are listed with all my other default fonts. If I create a presentation using that "cool" font, and then I run the show on a different machine or try to print it from a standard printer, I may not be able to see the font I had chosen. The operating system or the printer itself will replace my "cool" but unknown font with a standard one. If you want to avoid this, just choose your fonts picking them from the following "universal" font list: Arial, Verdana, Tahoma for the Sans-serif family, Times New Roman, Garamond, Century Schoolbook for the Serif fonts. And please have a look also at the article about "bullet" styles, since this last tip is valid also for the bullets. ============================================================== 2) *Why should I use the shadow effect in my text?* ============================================================== Why the shadow effect for your text? The purpose of the shadow is to increase the contrast of characters around their edges with the purpose of increasing readability and visual impact from distance. Text shadows can be used both to improve usability as well as for content design reasons such as to create more emphasis for a certain text or title. In some cases, when the contrast between the font color and the background color is not enough by itself to ensure readability, one can add a shadow effect on the text, as to sharpen the edges, and create a better contrast between text and background. Text shadows should be used only to create such contrast where the shadow color is darker than the background. Do not use text shadows that are lighter in color than the text they support. Visual results generated by such solutions look invariably unprofessional. The same holds true for text shadows that are lighter than the background color. A simple way of getting a shadow effect to your text is to select the text you want to apply the shadow to and click on the big "S" (for "shadow) in the "Formatting" toolbar, just besides "B" for bold, "I" for italic and "U" for underlined. Unfortunately, in this way you will obtain only a default light shadow: its color may be gray and its effect mediocre at best. If instead you access the "graphic" shadow feature in PowerPoint, you can completely customize the shadow, changing its color and moving its orientation. Let's see how to do it: a) Select the text you want to apply the shadow effect to b) On the Drawing Toolbar, click on the second last icon, "Shadow" c) Select the last option "Shadow Settings..." d) You will obtain a small floating window with some icons: - The first one from the left is "Shadow On/Off". This icon turns on or off the shadow effect - The second block of 4 icons are to "nudge" shadow up, down, left or right. These are useful options since you can customize the visible portion of your shadow: you can decide how much shadow you will display and in what direction it will appear. - The last icon, the "Shadow Color", is a drop down list that will let you chose exactly the color you need for your shadow. You even have the possibility to apply a semitransparent shadow to your text. By using these tools you will be able to apply any type of shadow to your text. What is more important, you will be able to change the shadow color according to the background and text color you have chosen. Just make a few attempts and see the result full screen. The purpose is to gain in readability, not in fanciness. As long as you use sober colors and try to focus on readability, your results will be great. ============================================================== 3) *How can I customize bullets?* ============================================================== Have you ever wanted to select presentation bullets that would fit with your taste, the topic of the presentation, the audience, and so on? Have you ever wondered how and where to find more appropriate icons for your presentation bullets? Microsoft PowerPoint also assigns, by default, different bullet styles for the different levels of indentation: For the first level of bullets, you find a normal black dot. For the second level, the sub-bullets, you get a dash (hyphen). The third level of indentation, the sub-sub-bullets, has again the same black dot as the first level, but smaller in size. The fourth level, even if I am pretty sure you are not likely to use it really often, has again the dash (hyphen). These are the standard symbols used by default any time you choose to have a bulleted list. If you want to customize the bullets, and you want to do it for all the slides and not only for one slide, do the following: Go to "View" >> "Master" >> "Slide Master". What you can do here is customize the single bullets: Move the mouse pointer on top of the bulleted area, and click just in front of the line whose bullet you want to modify: first bulleted line for the first level of bullets, second bulleted line for the second level and so on. Once the cursor is blinking in the right line, go to "Format": For PowerPoint 2000, select "Bullets and Numbering...". You will obtain a dialog box with different options: a) You can choose whether you want numbers, letters or symbols. b) You can set the size of the bullets in relation to the size of the text c) You can change the color of the bullets. d) But most of all, by clicking on "Character..." you have the option to change the type of bullet. You have different font families that you can browse to search for the right bullet for your presentation. For PowerPoint 97 you should click on "Format" >> "Bullets..." and then directly choose the font style, the symbol to use, the size of the bullets and the color of it. I would suggest you to choose among these fonts: Symbol Webdings Windings Monotype Sorts ZapfDingbats. You will find plenty of different icons and symbols that will replace your default bullets. The additional advantage, choosing one of the above fonts, is great compatibility: According to our article #1, you should keep in mind that not all the characters available to you in PowerPoint will be properly displayed in a different operating system, printer or browser. But any of the symbols chosen from the above list is universal, standard, and can be found also on different computers. You will avoid any bad surprise of having another computer replacing automatically any unknown symbol with a default bullet, usually a simple black dot, sometimes an empty white rectangle. ============================================================== 4) *How can I replace or modify fonts?* ============================================================== Let's see what's the fastest way of dealing with font issues. In case you have a short presentation (2-3 slides) and you want to replace some of the fonts used, you can just do it manually, by replacing the fonts slide by slide. This method doesn't work when you are dealing with a 10 or 20 or even more-slide presentation. There has to be a simpler way. One way is to make use of the Slide Master: whenever you want to modify a font style used in all the slides of your presentation, replace that font on the Slide Master. To do so, go to "View" >> "Master" >> "Slide Master". Now that you have displayed the Slide Master, click on the box whose text style you want to modify (titles? bulleted lists?) and assign a different font style choosing it from the drop down list. Doing this, will modify all the slides of the presentation, ensuring consistency of the overall design and saving you time. Another way of modifying the font style is by clicking on "Format" >> "Replace Fonts". In the first line, "Replace what" you have a dropdown list with as many entries as the font styles you have been using inside your presentation. Select here the one you want to modify. Then on the "Replace with" dropdown list just select the new font that should replace the old one. As soon as you click "OK", all the slides in your presentation will reflect these new changes. In a few clicks you will have changed all the fonts. This is a good method because it lets you modify the font styles selectively, and you can modify just one or all the different styles in use in your presentation. In case you want to play around with the letter cases, you can use another option you find under the "Format" menu: "Change case". From this dialog box you can change in one shot the case of words, phrases or entire slides or presentations. Just select first the text whose case style you want to modify. Then click on "Format" >> "Change Case" and select the one that better fits your needs. This method is not different at all from the same option you have in Microsoft Word. You can use this option also if you are formatting the styles from the "slide master". And my friend Luigi suggests also that you can use a great keyboard shortcut for this: Shift+F3. ============================================================== 5) *How can I improve readability?* ============================================================== - How much data can fit on a slide? - How many table rows, columns, organigram boxes, and words per line are acceptable? - How many relevant elements can a slide have? The amount of information that can be packed on a slide is limited by the requirements for readability and easy comprehension. A presentation which is difficult to read will not only loose in audience comprehension but will also increase the chances that the audience will be distracted and annoyed. Testing all slides on a projector and standing back at the same distance that the audience will be is essential not only for correcting font size and styles, but also to see how the colors used are effected when projected. Remember not to take the monitor as an example of how the presentation will finally look. If worse comes to worse, squeeze your eyes and stand back about ½ a meter from the monitor to have a close idea of what your most distant viewers will see. Below are some key points to remember: - Font sizes should be at least ½ cm for every two meters distance the audience is viewing from. - Line spacing should be at least 1 to 1½ times the height of the font used. - The width of the projected image should be at least 1/6 of the distance between the screen and the last person at the back of the room. - The height of the projected image should be a little higher than that of the audience so to remain visible should the room become crowded or if people are standing. Titles & Text: Max title lines: 2 Max bulleted items: 5-6 Max words per lines: 6-8 Max reference elements: 2-3 Spreadsheets: Max rows: 7 Max columns: 7 Organigrams: Max elements: 14-18 cells Tables: Max rows: 7 Max columns: 7 Overall Relevant Items: Max number: 7 ============================================================== 6) *The effective use of colors in presentations* ============================================================== By Luigi Canali De Rossi Approaching presentation design with sound color principles and assumptions can set the right foundations to deliver an effective presentation independently of topic, setting and audience. The effective use of color in presentations is based on three key principles: 1) Restraint - Limit the use of color 2) Legibility - Select colors on the basis of their capability to render content more legible 3) Consistency - Repeat the use of the same colors 1) Restraint From my personal experience and research less is always more where color is concerned. Effectiveness and success come from using consistently a limited set of highly suitable colors. Color should never be used to make up for unqualified or unsatisfactory design. Color should not be used to decorate, but instead to purposefully highlight, emphasize or separate information. Unless you can separate important information from unimportant parts of your message, you will be unable to use color with restraint. Restraint implies understanding your message before you work with color. It is generally a good idea to design your document first in black and white or in shades of gray, and only then to substitute colors with extreme care and attention. 2) Legibility issues Legibility, based on foreground and background contrast, is vital to the effective use of color in presentations. When viewing a colored object in a visual space, the color of that object, in your brain, is determined by the relationship of that color with the surrounding colors. Objects may appear to wash out or change size if placed against different colors. For these reasons, the right choice of background and foreground colors is important in assuring good legibility. You can ensure adequate contrast by making sure there is sufficient difference in color between the text and the background it is set against. There are additional ways you can enhance text legibility. When setting text in color, you can make it easier to read by using the following techniques: a) Increase the size of type set in color. b) Even a one-point difference in type size might be enough to make type set in color appear more crisp and legible. c) Increase text weight. d) Use a bolder or heavier typeface. e) Choose a sans serif font (Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, Century Gothic, Impact, Futura, etc.) f) The same tips also apply when printing text against colored backgrounds, i.e. increase the type size, increase the text weight or consider using a sans serif typeface. 3) Consistency Consistency involves utilizing the selected set of colors over and over again. Continuous variation of color leads to inconsistent designs which are characterized by an unprofessional look, crowded displays and a feeling of "patched up" work. By utilizing the same basic set of colors over and over again, the communication will convey aspect, tone and feel for the overall "institutional" or "thematic" image that you wish to carry forward. Color identity is generally developed in-house or within your department through the preparation of a so-called Identity Style Manual. This document sets and defines through visual examples and references the limited set of official color combinations allowed by the "look" of your organization. As this style manual is published and shared with other publishers, designers, and editors within your organizations and as more communication officers are forced to follow its guidelines, the more your organization or department can create and effective and consistent institutional identity. Utilizing color to build institutional or thematic color identity is a worthy effort. Consistency of color and presence of a color identity leads viewers to perceive the content presented as more credible, reliable, and as coming from a trusted source. Color and emotions Most people have very strong emotional reactions to color. By implication, a presentation that makes extensive use of any given color-scheme is going to draw extreme reactions from its viewers. Unless polarizing your audience is part of your overall presentation design plan, it's probably best to avoid heavy use of color in most "professional" presentations. Moderate, neutral colors may be "boring," but a provocative use of colors in slides attracts and captures only those viewers who have individual or learned cultural preferences or predisposition for those specific hues. From warm background colors to heavy use of highly over saturated hues, too many presentations sacrifice readability in the name of drawing attention and "visual impact." Genuinely effective use of color is a magical mixture of both art and science. Color blinded viewers using reds and greens About 6% to 10% of any viewing audience experiences some degree of "color perception" problem or color blindness. The most common is red-green deficiency, which can arise from a deficiency of either the red or the green photo pigments. These people have difficulty distinguishing any color that is dependent upon the red:green ratio. You can also generally assume that they will see less contrast between colors than you will. Color-blindness comes in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and severities. Most often, color blindness takes the form of an inability to distinguish various shades of reds and greens. In other, more extreme cases, most greens and almost all reds can appear to the viewer as shades of gray. Reference: "Physiological Principles for the Effective Use of Color", G. Murch, IEEE CG&A, pp. 49-54, Nov., 1984. http://www.siggraph.org/education/materials/HyperGraph/color/co loreff.htm By carefully designing your presentation with great care and awareness in the use of reds and greens you are allowing even color-blind or chromatically handicapped viewers to appreciate and enjoy to greater level your presentation work. Color use in slide layout My first advice is to utilize color to visually organize your slides. A colored bar can help in setting aside the title area from the rest, while another colored section can support reference info or callouts. The more color is used "functionally", that is, to draw or support viewer scanning and comprehension of the information in a faster and more effective way. Secondly, I would strongly recommend to increase the use of white or "empty" space. Such space is as important as the space filled with information or visuals. It guides the eye, it helps the overall layout not to be overburdening for the viewer, it calms down too crowded displays, and gives generally a feel of professional, elegant and quality work. I would certainly declare that liberal use of white space becomes a necessity, for both reader comfort and effective comprehension. Thirdly, if you lighten your light colors and darken your dark colors, you will increase the visual accessibility of your design and the overall contrast and readability of your key content. Background colors The choice of background colors is probably the most critical one in the color design process of a presentation. The color selected inevitably affects the gamut of colors that can be used for titles and text, and the type of illustrations and photographs that can be used most effectively. The background color choice sets the mood and "tone" of the whole presentation. Muted, neutral, pastel like, Siena colors work well in presentation backgrounds. These include sand-like shades, light greens and browns, and some light blue shades. Light colors such as these support high readability, the use of black for titles and text, but have a tendency to "lighten" the seriousness and tone of the content presented. A rarely selected color that can be very effective for background use is gray. Neutral gray (50% black) is a very effective background choice and lends many options in the selection of titles and text color as well as in the selection of visuals and photos. In particular the darkest and lightest shades of gray work particularly well in presentations. There are also some colored grays as I would call them, or colors that work well across a larger spectrum of situations and which allow the use of either dark or light text on them. The cross point between blue and green as well as the one between yellow and red offer for example an interesting alternative to background colors typically seen around conference rooms. White is a neutral color in background use and can be safely applied to many situations. Black works extremely well in backgrounds and can work extraordinarily well with settings in which the presentation room is in true darkness. Colors in text and titles Titles should be set in most cases in white or black depending on the type of background chosen. An effective alternative to black and white use is applying dark tones of black in place of black and very light grays in place of white. This solution can lead to more restful displays and a somewhat more pleasing contrast ratio. Viewers will perceive the dark and very light grays to be effective blacks and whites. Blends and color gradations inside titles should be rigorously avoided. Avoid colors that handicapped users may not see properly such as red and green. Use color in keywords for emphasis. Avoid light colors for text as light blue, light yellow, light green unless you need to obtain a playful, children or health- cosmetic related feel. Don't use color on thin typefaces - it makes them hard to read Don't use an intense colored background with small type - this also decreases legibility Selecting appropriate and most effective color combinations 1) A good reference visual that you can utilize to select appropriate color combinations is the one that you can find at: http://www.lighthouse.org/color_contrast.htm Choose dark colors with hues from the bottom half of the hue circle against light colors from the top half of the circle. Avoid contrasting light colors from the bottom half against dark colors from the top half. 2) Another great tool you can use to try out color combinations in a snap is Andrew Mundi's Web Color Theory. While this tool has been designed for Web designers, it is still really helpful for many presenters, as it allows to simply try out color combinations through a simple but very effective interface as well as trying out colors on a dummy page layout to see how background and text would interact and more. http://www.mundidesign.com/webct/webct.html Once you go and try this free online tool make sure you access and try out the three small interface icons you will find at the bottom right of the working panel (the label next to them reads: "Change and reset the color studies"). Measuring color effectiveness Two very effective methods I have personally adopted to test and verify the effectiveness and readability of my presentation designs are also the methods I demonstrate in my Information Design courses and workshops: a) Look at your slides in black and white. If the layout and basic color scheme works well and it is highly readable under this working conditions, then you are probably using an effective color layout and you should feel confident that it will work in many situations and for many users. PowerPoint offers a specific function to visualize the presentation in black and white. On the main PowerPoint toolbar simply access the button labeled "Grayscale Preview" on the top right side just before the zoom box. Alternatively, access the "View" menu and select "Black and white". b) Sit down in front of your monitor and stand back about half a meter (or about 1.5 feet) and squint your eyes as much as possible while maintaining a minimum of view. Check your design and legibility in this way and see how well it stands especially on legibility and overall color contrast issues. If it works well under these conditions then you can be sure that it will work very well under normal conditions. Final recommendation My final recommendations to communication officers and other presenters is: If you're a business or institutional presenter who has not had any color or design training background, you should restrain yourself from extensive and creative use of colors. From there, grow and extend your use of colors by following the basic principles outlined here. Though this suggestion may be hard to take at first, I advise you to give it a good consideration and allow yourself to develop on a gradual basis.
