In Seth Godin’s article, he recommends that presenters buy or download a custom font to use in their PowerPoint presentations. He states, “This is like dressing better or having a nicer business card. It’s subtle, but it works.” This good idea could backfire as soon as you share your presentation with someone who doesn’t own the same font or if you deliver your presentation on another computer. This article will focus on how you can embed a custom font in a PowerPoint file so that it stays intact for other people to enjoy on their computers. Step 1 – Find your own font Seth Godin recommends finding a nice font via one of Smashing Magazine’s sponsors. Rather than searching through thousands of fonts on hundreds of font sites (you can spend hours doing this), Smashing Magazine has a couple of useful articles that can simplify your font search:. In order to work within PowerPoint, you need to ensure the font you eventually use is a TrueType font.
Step 2 – Install the font on your computer It is relatively simple to add a new font to your PC. If you have never installed a new font before, Microsoft has some support articles on the subject:.
Step 3 – Embed the custom font in your PowerPoint file In order to embed the custom font in PowerPoint 2007, start by clicking on the big round Office button at the top-left and then clicking on the “PowerPoint Options” button at the bottom of the menu that appears. Once you have the PowerPoint Options window open, select the Save tab and then check the “Embed fonts in the file” checkbox.
You then have the option to include all of the characters (increases the file size) or only the characters used (reduces the file size). Yes, I wouldn’t recommend embedding all of the characters. I haven’t needed to use that option before.
I’ve mainly used the “embed only the characters used” option. It didn’t seem to impact the file size too much. I did a quick test on the two different options. My 3.5MB presentation increased to 4MB when I used the “embed only the characters used” option.
However, when I embedded all characters, it ballooned to 10MB! Therefore, I would recommend the first option in order to keep your file size to a manageable level.
