Slide Layout
PowerPoint offers different slide layouts within a presentation. For instance, on one slide you can have a title, three bulleted points, and an image. On another you can have a title and a chart.
When you create a new slide, you can choose from a number of slides with Predefined layouts. These layouts offer you readymade templates.
