How To Add a Header or Footer to a PowerPoint Presentation
This page will tell you how to change the background design of either a single slide or all the slides in a PowerPoint Presentation.
STEP 1:
From the Toolbar in PowerPoint, click on the "View" button.
STEP 2:
Now click on the "Header and Footer" button.
STEP 3:
A box will appear with different options. In my option I have selected "Date and Time" and I selected for it to be "Fixed" and told it a date to put on the slide. In the "Preview" box on the right, it shows you where the date and time will be placed on the slide.
STEP 4:
If you want to add the date and time to the handouts and notes, then you will need to click on the "Notes and Handouts" tab at the top of the window.
STEP 5:
In here you can add information that will be on the pages if the students print the handouts. I have selected to add just a fixed date on the handouts. Also, the preview window shows where this information will be placed.
STEP 6:
Click the little disk icon on the toolbar to SAVE the presentation.
