Microsoft PowerPoint 2016 – Change the Default Font for all text

Rather than updating your slides one by one, you can change the default font for your entire presentation.

Here’s what you do:

To change the default font in the Slide Master:

1.Click View > Slide Master.

2. On the Slide Master tab, click the Fonts drop-down menu. Select the font you want to use for all the slides in the presentation.

Note: Any changes you make in this Slide Master view affect all the other slide templates.

3. Click Close Master View. The text throughout your presentation will automatically update to the new font.

Tip: You can save time and eliminate additional formatting steps in the future by saving the updated Slide Master as a new template. For details, see Help for Create a new template to save your default font.
