Creative Arabic Calligraphy: Kashida, Ta'jîm, and Tashkîl Posted: 03 Jun 2021 06:00 AM PDT What You'll Be Creating This Arabic calligraphy beginner tutorial is packed with information. In this lesson, we'll look at two more sets of "design elements" before we start putting it all together to create letterforms and compositions. But what if you're a digital artist or graphic designer and need modern Arabic fonts ready to use?  We'll also review some Arabic fonts online from Envato Elements. You can use this premium Arabic-style font for your creative digital projects. If you're looking for the best Arabic fonts online for your digital projects, scroll down after this Arabic calligraphy beginner tutorial. There's a hand-picked selection of premium Arabic calligraphy fonts from Envato Elements. What You Will Learn in This Arabic Calligraphy Art Tutorial Kashida learning: The Art of Justification Ta'jîm and other diacritics Exercises to learn Arabic calligraphy How to write Arabic letters in calligraphy Kashida Learning: The Art of Justification Spacing, which we have studied in an earlier lesson, should not be confused with kashida (aka tamdîd, tatwîl or madd, all of which means "elongation" or "stretch"), the equivalent of justification for Latin-script texts. To justify a text is to make sure all the lines in a block of text begin and end on the same level. When a block of text is not justified, it is ragged left or right, like this: In contrast, below is text that has been justified. In the Latin script, this is done by expanding or contracting the space between letters. In the Arabic script, it is done by stretching the letters themselves, and this is not necessarily in the context of equalizing a text: kashida can be applied to a standalone word just to make it more interesting. I want to make a subtle distinction here between stretching actual letters and extending the connecting stroke to the next letter. For our purposes, we'll refer to the first case as stretch or mashq, and to the second as lengthening or tatwîl. Kashida will refer to justification in general as achieved by either or both.  The text above shows examples of lengthening only, as a computer font can do no more. Lengthening is only applicable to some connecting letters, when they do connect (that is, when they are in their initial or medial form): Lengthening is not applicable to boxed letters, or to be more accurate, is unwanted there. This is because boxed letters, which are strongly horizontal, can be stretched in their body —at least in rectilinear scripts. Not so in round scripts, so stretching is largely exclusive to Kufic. Stretching is preferred over lengthening whenever possible, because it doesn't create a big white space in the texture of the text. Therefore, if a letter can stretch, to lengthen it makes no sense, and looks wrong. Dâl, for one, is not a connecting letter, so it could not be lengthened anyway. Boxed letters are useful because they can stretch even when they are final or isolated. When a letter ends in a flat tail, that can be lengthened as well: Examples of lengthening (1), stretching (2) and lengthened tails (3) in the Blue Qur'ân. This leaves us with a few letters that can neither stretch nor lengthen in the positions shown: Inevitably, some words are going to be impossible to stretch. Here's a list of words that offer zero to many possibilities for justification. A red cross means that option is not possible; an orange one, that it is possible, but not desirable. Let's examine why. In the case of أكل lengthened to أكــــــــل, we have already seen that when a letter can stretch, it makes no sense to lengthen it instead.  The next word has two lengthening options because it contains two letters that can be lengthened. What difference does it make which we use? The difference is beauty. While the ربـــــيع option is not wrong, it is, simply put, a boring option, because the long stroke is bang in the middle. The word is then divided into two somewhat equal parts, which appears static yet not accurate enough to be satisfying.  In contrast, the uneven split in ربيــــــع is dynamic—the final Ayn looks much better on its own, if split there must be. There is also the fact that the Yâ' here is the long sound, and matching the lengthening of the line to that of the sound is both pleasing and artful. The final word offers several possibilities and it's not so easy to discard some. إستطـــــــلع was discarded because, again, we have a box letter being lengthened instead of stretched. It is even more undesirable here because the two verticals of the Tâ' and Lâm have been split apart, and verticals, as we saw in our lesson on Spacing, are always better close together.  The next discard is based on sheer unattractiveness; it is not necessarily wrong to have more than one kashida in the same word, but it needs to look good and balanced, and this is not the case. Perhaps if they were both the same length, the result would be less half-baked, and perhaps context would make the difference. It's not cut and dried.  The same goes for the other options—they may or may not work, depending on context. Personally, I would choose the stretched option if I wanted the word to remain blocky, or one of those that isolate a single letter ( إستطلـــــــع or إســــــتطلع ), for the dynamism of the result. Historically, kashida was used for various reasons, some aesthetic and some functional. The list offers suggestions for introducing this device in a composition to great effect. Aesthetic Use Justification itself is the most obvious use: leveling the beginning and end of every line in a paragraph so that it is altogether shaped like a regular block, or adjusting the length of a single line. Introducing breathing spaces in a body of text, and/or a pleasing rhythmic pattern of spaces. Positioning letters (pushing them out of the way, so to speak) so that ascenders and descenders don't clash, especially when lines are quite close together, but also to create alignments within the text. In this 9th century Qur'ân, the section title is made to take up the full length of the page, as well as being highlighted by its golden colour. Functional Use A word is often extended (to the point that it takes up an entire line) to mark the beginning or end of a paragraph. This was particularly common when Arabic used no other punctuation. Bringing attention to important words in a text, the equivalent of bolding or highlighting them. Despite the tightness of this page, it is immediately clear where a new Sura begins: it is where the kashida is present, highlighting the word Rahmân in the Bismillah that begins every Sura. In later times the kashida moved to the first word, Bismillah itself, but it still served the same purpose. Other considerations Where possible, and if not overridden by other considerations, kashida is made to match a long sound as mentioned above. Two-letter words are generally not stretched or lengthened. Avoid "stairs", or the superposition of elongations on two consecutive lines, unless that is done by design and well studied. Exercise 1 Here is a sentence with two stretchable letters and plenty of connections that can be lengthened. (This is an old Lebanese proverb that says: "In April nature becomes like a bride.") Print out Exercise1.pdf which is included in the downloads folder. You will find a grid over three lines, with the first and last letter of the sentence already in place. Your task is to distribute and justify these four words over the three lines in a way that looks nice to you.  You can try several possibilities; I recommend starting by just trying out the kashidas without worrying about aesthetics. The restrictions in place actually make it easier by not allowing infinite possibilities. Exercise1solutions.pdf shows two possibilities and points out what makes them interesting. The letters are very thin so that you can copy them by hand, preferably freehand even if the lines don't come out straight. It's quicker so you'll be able to focus on the exercise rather than on handling the ruler. Also, it's about time we start drawing letters, even skinny ones, to warm up for the next lesson! Ta'jîm and Other Diacritics These are a number of additional signs that can accompany an Arabic text to indicate sounds not included in the pure alphabet. They are often neglected in the rectilinear scripts, which predate ta'jîm, and much more prominent (compulsory, even) in the round scripts, but it is good to have them in our palette, so to speak, as potential for added layers of visual interest.  However, we must bear in mind that there is a certain hierarchy to be respected in their usage. Vowel marks, for instance, cannot be included if pointing is not. The diacritics are discussed in order of precedence, starting with the highest rung of the hierarchy, unless specified. As this is not a language lesson, I'll only give minimal info regarding the sound and function of these marks, focusing instead on their shape and position, i.e. what we need to know to be able to create with them. Ta'jîm These are the diacritic "dots", or for a better term, the pointing used to differentiate letters that share a letterform, such as ح and ج. Ta'jîm, or i'jâm, literally means "foreignization", because, like the other sets of signs that make reading easier, pointing was introduced for the sake of populations that were not native Arabic speakers and therefore would struggle with the correct reading of the Qur'ân. The dots are at the top of the diacritic ladder of hierarchy: they need to be present before any other level is included. If they are omitted, then the script should be entirely bare, save for the isolated hamza (see below) which has a semi-letter status. Tashkîl Literally "forming [elements]", these are phonetic guides or diacritics. Hamza: Shaped like a small Ayn without returning tail. Depending on the sound accompanying it, it can be placed over the Alif, Wâw and Yâ' (in which case the Yâ' loses its dots), under the Alif, or independently on the baseline. The size of the hamza changes subtly: when attached to one of the letters above, it tends to be tiny, like other diacritics. When it's isolated on the baseline, it is more sizeable, without attaining the full size of a letter. Scaling the isolated hamza is an interesting design conundrum. Shadda ("stress"): This sign is the equivalent of doubling a consonant. It has the shape of a tiny Sîn without a bowl (somewhat like a mini-W) and can be found above any letter except the Alif. Another aspect of the shadda is that it pairs up with the short vowels as shown below: fatha and damma over it, kasra under it (not under the baseline, exceptionally). Hierarchy-wise, the shadda and diacritic hamza are in close contest. However, the isolated hamza is a semi-letter and as such, takes precedence even over ta'jîm. Harakât ("movements"): They indicate the short vowel sounds that the alphabet lacks. Fluent speakers are expected not to need them, and even today they are mostly used in learning texts, children's literature, religious texts where pronunciation is vital, or here and there where a word is ambiguous. And, of course, for purely aesthetic purposes. These signs are: Fatha: A diagonal stroke from upper right to lower left, or horizontal—never vertical so as not to be confused with the dagger alif. Always above the letter. Kasra: Same shape as the fatha, but positioned below the letter. Damma: Shaped like a tiny Wâw, always above the letter. Sukûn: A hollow circle indicating "stillness", an absence of sound. Madda: Shaped like a tilde, or possibly a long horizontal dash, but it should not be able to be confused with the fatha. It only appears above an Alif, doubling it; so in effect it is the Alif's own shadda. Dagger alif ألف خنجرية: This is an archaic way of writing the long a sound, as the Alif was originally often unwritten within a word; that's why very old words, including the word Allah itself, have Alif vocalized but not written. As a result, the dagger alif occurs frequently in the Qur'an, but rarely in daily writing where words are spelled in the modern way—except words so old and common their spelling has been in continuous use unchallenged, such as "this", hâdhâ هذا, but even there, the pronunciation is assumed to be commonly known, and the sign is not used. It is a short vertical stroke above and between two letters, where the Alif sound should be. Wasla: A "joining" symbol written above the Alif to suppress its pronunciation, joining two words without a glottal stop. It looks like a tiny Sâd without a bowl, and is only ever found on the first Alif of a word or of the article. Evolution and Diversity All of these symbols underwent a long evolution before settling in the form that we use today, and their entire history can be followed within Kufic texts, from complete absence to early experimental forms, until at last in the so-called Eastern Kufic, they are seen fully mature. Today's average Arabic reader, looking at the text below, would automatically attempt to recognize the letters based on the red dots (until they realized that yielded no sense). Abbasid Qur'ân, 8th or 9th century. But these dots are not pointing at all! In this early vocalization system, they indicate the short vowel sounds (harakât, described below). The actual pointing is done in small dashes close to the letters, which themselves look exactly like what we now use for vowel sounds, so things were altogether turned around in the course of their evolution.  The example below, though later in time, has no diacritics at all other than pointing, and even that only where a word is too ambiguous. Thus the word تشتدوا, near bottom right, has a full set of dots, while تكونوا  just above it, was judged too unmistakeable to warrant them. The Blue Qur'ân, 10th century. Contemporary to this is another manuscript where the system, in contrast, makes elaborate use of colour: red dots are still used for the short vowels, hamza are added in green, shadda in gold. The pointing is now even more discreet as the dashes are the same colour as the body text. You can just see an example on the bottom line, towards the left, where a thin dash on the Nûn of من is nearly eclipsed by a large red dot. 10th century Qur'ân. One needs to also be aware of regional differences, which continue to this day—perhaps not in typed media, but at least in handwriting and calligraphy, particularly religious.  In Egypt, for instance, the final Yâ' may be unpointed, causing the unaware reader to confuse it with a "broken alif", written like an unpointed Yâ' but pronounced like an Alif. North Africa, the province of the Maghribi scripts, followed its own line of evolution and so held on to some bits of early diacritics. In particular, the Qâf and Fâ' are pointed differently than they are in the Mashriq: in the text below, the letter circled in red, looped with a single dot above, is a Qâf. The Fâ' is circled in blue, and its dot is below the loop. 13th-century North African Qur'ân Notice also another use of colour: the vowel marks, including a dagger alif, are the same colour as the body (and they are horizontal dashes, a signature of Maghribi), except for the sukûn. The latter is blue, like the shadda, presumably because they are both silent. There is another sign very much like sukûn, except for its green colour, over some Alifs: that is a wasla. One more circle, orange and full, stands for the hamza. In the elegant Eastern Kufic page below, colours are used again, but more sparingly and within a fully-formed system.  Pointing is in large round dots, as if the previous ratio of bold lines to tiny dashes had been reversed, but is actually the most subtle part of the diacritics, as the dots are gold with only a fine outline.  Again the vocalized signs are all in one colour (red), while those that are mute, like the sukûn, are blue.  There is an additional detail of interest: circled in white, you'll notice tiny letters, ح and ع, under their in-text equivalent. When pointing was still a novelty, it became customary for a time to annotate non-pointed letters with their tiny isolated self, as done here, for clarity.  Getting Creative With Pointing The number and basic position of the dots, which identify letters, have been described in Anatomy of the Letterforms, and there's little more to be said in the way of rules. There is much, however, to be said about what can be done with pointing as an aesthetic element. Because they're so simple, and because calligraphy is about beauty more than function, dots are a singularly free part of the script. Shape The shape of the "dots" is by no means necessarily round. In fact they seldom are, looking at historic examples. We have already seen them written as dashes, and in the rounded scripts they are canonized as the rhombus shape created by the reed, which in the geometry of Kufic can translate to a dynamic square (diamond).  There is no restriction at all on their shape, in theory, except good taste: the more fanciful the shape, the more noticeable they are, and that can quickly become visually cloying. Even when working with a short sentence or a single word, it is always good to estimate the number of dots it contains before getting overly creative with them.  Here are two examples from my own work where the shape of the dots was determined during the design process, to enhance the composition. The word توّاب only contains three dots, and this design kept their repetition small. In addition, the sobriety of the design needed to be balanced with intricate touches. So I chose an unusually detailed shape for the dots, which worked beautifully as the intricacy of the pointing sets off the simplicity of the rest and gives a sense of scale, and vice versa; plain round dots would have made the whole composition look plain. This next word, ثبات, has double the pointing, and the design multiplies that by 18! Normally I would leave out the dots altogether, but in this case, the extremely rectilinear Kufic would have been too severe. So once again I balanced it out, but this time using the simplest of shapes—dashes. Being harmonious with the dominating rectangles, they don't intrude on the composition but echo it on a smaller scale, and by the same token make it more delicate than it would have been without them. Size The size of the dots is equally free, but I recommend not being arbitrary: Let the diameter be in a clear ratio to the line width (1:1, 1:2, 1:3...). This isn't only perceived as looking right; it also ensures that you'll always find a harmonious positioning. Otherwise aligning two or three dots can look very awkward. The same consideration applies to the distance between the dots and the line. Dots in a ratio to the line of 1:1, 1:2 and 2:1 respectively Positioning  The two dots can also, for instance, be placed vertically rather than horizontally. The three dots are usually in a triangle, but can just as well be aligned. If the line width of the letters is substantial, as it often is in Kufic, a creative approach could be to place the dots within the line width, or overlapping it halfway. Examples of unusual dots positioning, from my work. To Sum It Up: Diacritics can be completely or partially omitted, bearing in mind the hierarchy of addition. Diacritics can serve as visual accents by taking a different colour from the letters (with the distribution of colour very much up to the calligrapher). There isn't one final single system, even if most of those that were in use at one point or another are long out of use. Pointing in particular is highly flexible in shape and location. Diacritics can be modeled closely on the style of the letters, or made to completely contrast; for instance, freehand cursive diacritics to give movement to a very architectural Kufic. Exercise 2 Below is a pointed and accented sentence. Print out a few copies of the unaccented version, included in the downloadable folder (Exercise2.pdf), and experiment with adding different levels of diacritics, using different colours in different ways, and modifying their shapes and placement to your taste. (This is another old Lebanese proverb: "Roaring March is the month of earthquakes and downpours, with seven big snows, not counting the little ones.") 5 Best Modern Arabic Fonts From Envato Elements You now know more about how to write Arabic letters in calligraphy.

Then, simply start typing. That's all it takes. Repeat throughout your slide deck as needed. 3. Customize Fonts Many company profile PPT decks include their own unique fonts. But you can always add your own, along with text effects like bold and italics.  With any block of text selected, find the Font section of the Home tab. There, change the font size and style, along with colors, effects, and much more. Customizing fonts in premium company profile presentation design is an easy way to add beautiful style.

Add Images Photos really are worth a thousand words. And premium company profile presentations make adding them a breeze. Many slides include image placeholders. Once you find one, simply browse to a photo stored on your computer. Add photos in a flash thanks to image placeholders like the ones in this premium template. Then, drag the image over the placeholder and drop it. PowerPoint will instantly insert the image onto the slide, sized, and scaled perfectly. 5. Insert Transitions Transitions seamlessly move your company profile presentation from one slide to the next. They're appreciated by audiences and help keep your message flowing. To add transitions, find the Transitions tab on the menu. Move from slide to slide in style in a premium company profile PPT by using the Transitions menu. From there, click on the dropdown to see the full array of options. Click on a thumbnail to apply it and watch as PowerPoint instantly previews the effect. On the right side, you can change options like duration. You can also apply the same transition to every slide in the deck. 5 Quick Tips For Better Company Profile PowerPoint Presentations in 2021 Once you've downloaded your premium or free PowerPoint template, it's time to create your presentation. Here are five quick tips to help you make the most professional company profile PPT possible: 1. Include Testimonials Testimonials are a great way to add value to your brand and give you and your company a bit of social proof. Testimonials have an important psychological effect on your audience. When they see testimonials, potential customers are more likely to buy from you. This premium template features a testimonial page where you can insert a quote an image.  2. Make an Eye-Catching Title Slide The first slide in your presentation is an important one. This will set the tone for the entire presentation and needs to be on point.  First, include all the necessary information in the title slide. This includes the company name, address, phone number, website, and email. The next element you need to include is an eye-catching graphic or image. Also, make sure to include your brand's colors on the slide as well in the slide background or slide elements.

Don't Clutter the Presentation With all the premium templates available, you can access thousands of potential slides. You can easily add them to your presentation.

Choose a Legible Font There are hundreds of fonts to choose from in your PowerPoint presentations. But the most stylish looking ones may not be the best to use. Often stylish fonts are a bit more difficult to read. Make sure the font that you use is clearly legible at different font sizes.  Premium template Carona has a clear and legible font. 5. Include a CTA in the Final Slide Your final slide should contain an overview and lastly a call to action. This is incredibly important. You don't want to deliver a presentation and have no one take action on it. A call to action gets you and your company a step closer to reaching that goal.   This premium Company Profile Presentation template features an end slide with a call to action.  5 PowerPoint Design Trends for 2021 We've shared the tips that'll help you make your presentation stand out. Now, it's time to look at PowerPoint design trends for 2021. Here are some top trends to try: 1. Minimal and Clean Design Minimal and clean design is very popular right now. It allows your content to shine so your audience can focus on the content of your presentation. Take a look at the Ecro template from Envato Elements. It's the perfect example of company profile PowerPoint with minimal design. Premium Ecro template from Envato Elements 2. Horizontal Layouts Some PowerPoint templates have a vertical layout. But horizontal layouts still dominate the scene.  3. Bold Colors Color is the perfect way to add visual interest to your presentation. Use it to draw attention to a particular slide or to highlight a call to action. And bold colors lead the pack this year. The Company Profile Presentation uses a bold purple.  Premium Company Profile Presentation on Envato Elements 4. Color Overlays Color overlays on photos make the photos stand out, but they also make it easier to add a headline or a quote to the photo.  5. Simple Fonts Simple, sans-serif fonts dominate the world of PowerPoint templates. To create visual hierarchy, experiment with font weights instead of many fonts.

20 Best Free Fonts for Cricut (Monogram, Cursive, Script) Posted: 02 Jun 2021 09:00 AM PDT Looking for the perfect Cricut font? In this article, we'll take a look at some free fonts for Cricut, as well as some of the best Cricut fonts you can download for your craft projects, merchandise, and small business ventures. We've got monogram fonts for Cricut, Cricut lettering fonts, and much more. Find thousands of professional Cricut fonts over on Envato Elements What Is a Cricut Machine and What Does It Do? A Cricut machine is a cutting tool—but that is a lot more than it might sound like. You can create anything from kiss cut sticker sheets to greeting cards, gift tags, T-shirts, and more. Depending on your machine and accessories, your Cricut can draw, cut, and score a variety of materials, including various papers, vinyl, cardstock—some units can even work with leather and thin wood.  An example of a possible project using the Calose Cute font from Envato Elements. Create beautiful vinyl decals or create a beautiful, custom cake topper with your Cricut. There are so many possibilities with this versatile and easy-to-use tool.  It's important to note, however, that the Cricut is about cutting—not printing. So, for example, if you're interested in making something like bullet journal stickers, you'd need to print them out first. Then, let your Cricut take over to cut them for you. Your Cricut machine can make beautifully detailed cuts easier than ever.  It's an amazing tool for crafters, DIY fans, and independent artists who are looking to create and sell their own handmade merchandise. Example T-shirt designs using the Wishline Script font from Envato Elements. What Is a Cricut Font? Cricut fonts are the fonts included in Cricut Design Space—a free tool that is used to prepare and design your work for use with your Cricut machine. Your Cricut comes with a bunch of Cricut Design Space fonts included, such as Cricut Sans, a versatile sans serif font. Cricut writing fonts and Cricut fonts with layers have additional functionality. For example, check out some of the double layer font Cricut options next time you're in Design Space, under Font Style. Note that not all Cricut fonts are free. Many of them require a subscription to Cricut Access, a premium program that gives you access to a library of fonts and graphics. It's got some pretty nice offerings, too. It's got some of the best writing fonts for Cricut, if you want the machine to draw solid lines. Keep in mind, however, that you can often mimic the solid writing of some of the best writing fonts for Cricut by choosing a thin font.  However, your System Fonts can also work as Cricut fonts—fun and functional additions to your Cricut Design Space. This means that, in addition to the Cricut-specific fonts included with Design Space, you can also use other fonts installed on your computer. It's easy to add fonts to Cricut too. Here's the Catheline Cute Script font within Cricut Design Space—an imported System Font in use. You can easily make Cricut cursive fonts that connect with the Advanced Settings. This opens up a whole world of possibilities. While Cricut Access gives you access to hundreds of fonts, there are thousands upon thousands out there on the Internet to explore. It also means you're not stuck with the most popular Cricut fonts. You can choose something totally different and unexpected. Learn How to Upload Fonts to Cricut Design Space Using your System Fonts in Cricut Design Space is a breeze, once you know where to look and how to do it. Check out this video tutorial that will walk you through how to add fonts to Cricut Design Space, step by step, over on our Envato Tuts+ YouTube channel: Download Unlimited Premium Fonts (For Commercial Use!) I get it—everyone loves free content. However, if you're a power user or you intend to create work that you want to sell, free content can be a real bust. Think about it for a moment: just because something is free does not always mean it's free of copyright or licensing concerns.  It takes a lot of time and effort to find the perfect free font too. There might be a free price tag, but your time is valuable too. All that searching and the limited options can take a lot of the fun out of the design process. But hey, we're all working with a limited budget. Downloading a collection of fonts, especially when you're paying per font, can add up pretty quickly. That alternative isn't always within our means. So, what else is there? Check out Envato Elements. Download thousands of fonts on Envato Elements, all for one low fee. Envato Elements is all about unlimited downloads.

We're talking about a library of thousands of fonts here.

How to Make Great Wedding PowerPoint Slide Designs Quickly After you've settled on a wedding PowerPoint template, you'll need to customize it. Let's look at how to make a wedding slideshow with one of our wedding presentation templates. For the purposes of this tutorial, I'm using the Luci template from Envato Elements.  The template has a multipurpose layout that can be used by both members of the wedding party and wedding planners. To customize your template simply follow the steps below. 1. Replace the Content With Your Own The first thing you'll want to do is to replace the content with your own. Adding your own text is easy. Simply click on the existing dummy text, click CTRL or CMD + A to select all the text, and then start typing.  2. Customize Fonts and Colors After you've replaced the content, it's time to customize the colors and the fonts. If you want to recreate your wedding experience, be sure to use the same font you used in your invitations along with your wedding color scheme.  Easily customize the fonts by selecting the text on the slides and choosing a different font from the drop-down menu in the Office ribbon area.  To change the colors, click on the colored area and select a different color from the right-hand sidebar.  3. Add Your Images Now comes the most important part of your wedding presentation: your photos. Luckily, changing photos is easy. All you've got to do is click the picture icon and then upload your own image.  4. Duplicate Slides to Save Time Finally, if you find that you need more slides than what the template offers, you can easily duplicate existing slides. Right click the slide in the slide navigator and choose Duplicate Slide. This will also help you save time if you want some of your slides to have the same layout. 5 Creative Ideas to Make Any Wedding Slideshow Presentation Better That's it, you've learnt how to make a wedding slideshow. Now, your wedding slideshow presentation needs to be as special as your wedding day was. Here are a few tips that'll help you create a stellar wedding presentation.  1. Include Photos of You and Your Families The first tip is to include photos of you and your families, from your birth to current ones. This will help you share the entire story about how you two met and came together instead of simply sharing the wedding photos.  2. Vary the Slide Layout Use a mix of slide layouts to create a more dynamic and visually appealing wedding presentation in PPT. For example, use a picture slide followed by a slide that uses both photos and text or a slide that uses a gallery layout with many pictures. Wedding Photography PPT Template 3. Pay Attention to the Fonts If possible, try to match the fonts in your PowerPoint wedding presentation slideshow to those used elsewhere. That means align them with ones used in your invitations and thank you cards or even your wedding website. This will make the entire wedding experience cohesive for both you and your guests. Love Story PPT Template 4. Customize With Your Wedding Colors As you did with the fonts, you can customize your wedding slideshow with the wedding theme colors. This is another way to create a cohesive experience. It's nice if you plan on sharing the PowerPoint wedding slideshow files with your guests. Olivia PPT Template 5. Use Text Sparingly There's nothing wrong with using text to add notes about your wedding day or a particular photo. But be careful not to overdo it. Use text sparingly by adding short paragraphs where you want to capture extra details and let the photos tell the story. 5 Top PowerPoint Wedding Presentation Trends for 2021 You've seen our best wedding slideshows and now you know how to make a wedding slideshow.

Common PowerPoint Questions Answered (FAQ) If you're working on wedding slideshow ideas, you've probably got some questions about how to make a wedding slideshow. Here are five common questions answered: 1. How Much Should I Put On My Wedding Presentation Slides? If you're adding text to a slide keep the text short and minimal. If you've got too much text on your slide, it'll look like a big wall of text to your wedding guests.  Likewise, if you're using images or infographics don't put too many images and infographics on a slide. Too many items can overwhelm the audience. Microsoft PowerPoint PowerPoint Graphics Complete 2020 Guide (PPT Presentation Design) Andrew Childress 2. What Fonts Should I Use? If you decide to change the font that comes with your template, use a font that's easy to read from a distance. Stay away from fancy fonts since most of these can be hard to read from a distance.  If you want a different font color other than black, pick a font color that can be easily read. Don't use a bright font on a dark background because sometimes those are hard to read. Presentations How to Create Great PowerPoint Presentations (With Top 2020 Examples) Laura Spencer 3. What Color Scheme Should I Use? Most wedding presentation templates come with color schemes and color scheme choices. If you don't want to use the default colors, choose a color scheme where the colors go well together. Don't choose colors that contrast too much or don't go well together. For example: dark purple and black. This color scheme would clash and can be distracting to your wedding guests.

They work even if they're not designed as wedding PowerPoint (PPT) themes.  Microsoft PowerPoint 25+ Best Premium PowerPoint PPT Templates to Download for 2021 Presentations Sharon Hurley Hall 5.
