WORKING WITH SLIDE MASTERS
Slide master is one of the most powerful tools in OpenOffice Impress. It helps you set the default look of your slides
in terms of fonts, background, images, styles, colours and many other things. Whatever changes you do in the slide
master will be reflected in all the slides of the presentation.
You do not have to worry about its formatting at the time of the creation of the slides if the layout is taken care of in
slide master. All this saves you from a lot of struggle and time in designing your slides in a presentation.
For example, if you place your school logo or your name in the slide master then it will be automatically reflected on
all slides.
