    • In a light room, select dark text on a light background.
  2. Don’t put too much text on a slide. Use these general guidelines:
    • The 6 X 6 Rule:
    • No more than six bulleted items per slide
    • No more than six words in each bulleted item
    • Don’t put whole paragraphs of text on a slide; break up paragraphs into bulleted items
    • Don’t use font sizes smaller than 24 points
