Text Moving a Textbox To move a text box, move your cursor over the textbox border (see arrow above). The cursor will change to an arrow with 4 arrows pointing in all four directions. This allows you to move the textbox in any direction. Changing Font, Color & Size To change the font, font color & font size, first you must highlight the font you want to change. Next click on format font using the formatting toolbar located at the top of the PowerPoint window. This will open the font window (shown to the left). Simply choose your font, font size and font color from this window.
