- Template: A template is a pre-designed presentation file containing layouts, color schemes, fonts, and formatting styles. It provides a foundation for building your presentation with a unified and professional look. You can easily swap your content into the existing template structure.
- Pre-formatting (a): This term isn’t commonly used in PowerPoint. While formatting refers to the overall visual style applied to text, images, and layouts, “pre-formatting” wouldn’t typically indicate a specific file type.
- Wizard (c): Wizards are interactive tools that guide you through specific tasks within PowerPoint, like the AutoContent Wizard for building presentation structure or the Chart Wizard for creating data visualizations.
- AutoStyle (d): AutoStyles are pre-defined formatting sets you can apply to text or other elements within a presentation. While templates provide a broader design framework, AutoStyles focus on specific formatting aspects like headings, body text, or lists.
Templates offer a comprehensive collection of pre-designed styles that go beyond just formatting. They encompass the entire visual foundation for your presentation.
