MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / October 2006Suggested Font type and Size for Large audience
Hello, Is there a suggested font size and type for a PPT for a 500+ audience?? Thanks Dee The font that you are going to use should be legible. I would recommend Arial or anything that is not very fanciful.

Sure there'll be other views! Colour though is also vitally important. A good contrast with the background is needed and some colours dont project well on some projectors (yellows often but not always) Try it on the projector you'll use Did that answer the question / help? _____________________________ John Wilson Microsoft Certified Office Specialist http://www.technologytrish.co.uk/ppttipshome.html > Hello, > > Is there a suggested font size and type for a PPT for a 500+ audience?? > > Thanks > Dee I just did this for a group of 600+ in a Curling Rink which is quite large and had no problem viewing the presentation anywhere in the room using 50 as my largest and 30 as my smallest font size.
