Unless you are using PowerPoint Microsoft 365, you can’t highlight any text in the slide. But of course, there’s always a workaround to it! In this tutorial, I will show you the trick on how to highlight the text in older versions of PowerPoint.
1. Open a Word document and type any text. Select the text and click Text Highlight Color to highlight it.
2. Copy the entire text and paste it anywhere into your PowerPoint slide.
3. Still on your slide, select the highlighted text and click Format Painter.
4. Move the brush to paint over the text that you want to highlight.
5. Change the font size of the text so that it is the same as the current font size in your slide. Then, delete the text that you copied from Word.
That’s it! Find this useful? Please share it with your colleagues!
