You can change a header or footer placeholder (placeholders: Boxes with dotted borders that are part of most slide layouts. These boxes hold title and body text or objects such as charts, tables, and pictures.) by resizing it or relocating it anywhere on a slide.

  Notes  

• To add text to the top of each handout or notes page in your presentation, or to the bottom of each slide, handout, or notes page by using headers and footers , see Add a header or footer.
• To add slide numbers, page numbers, or the date or time to your slides, see Add slide or page numbers or the date and time.
• Currently, it is not possible to add a graphic (for example, a logo) to a header or footer.
• To change the font, size, case, color, or spacing for text within a placeholder, select the text, click the Home tab, and then in the Font group, click the options that you want.

• Do one of the following:
  • To resize a placeholder, click the placeholder that you want to change, point to one of its sizing handles (sizing handle: One of the small circles or squares that appears at the corners and sides of a selected object. You drag these handles to change the size of the object.), and when the pointer becomes a two-headed arrow, drag the handle.

  • To relocate a placeholder, click the placeholder that you want to change, point to one of its borders, and when the pointer becomes a four-headed arrow, drag the placeholder to a new position.
