3. Keep your text simple by using bullet
points or short sentences.
–
Use bullets or short sentences, and try to
keep each to one line; that is, without text
wrapping.
–
You want your audience to listen to you
present your information, rather than read the
screen.
–
Some projectors crop slides at the edges, so
long sentences may be cropped.
