Beyond fonts: make your presentations clear and engaging
Ever felt frustrated when the presentation text is hard to see or when there's just too much of it? Clear and engaging typography can be the game-changer that keeps your audience hooked and conveys your message powerfully.
Our product designer, Anton Elovikov, shares top tips to ensure your slides aren’t just readable but make a lasting impression too.
Choose the right theme
If you know your slides will be projected in a well-lit room, choose a dark theme. Otherwise, your text will be hard to read.
Anton’s tip: For computer screens, lighter themes tend to work best.
Prioritise slide layout
The most critical content should be at the top and left because people usually scan slides in an F-pattern.
Anton’s tip: Squint and spot the slide's brightest areas; viewers tend to look there first!
Organise the hierarchy
Use a maximum of three heading levels (like h1, h2, h3) for clarity. Well-designed headlines assist users in navigation.
Anton’s tip: Consistency is key! Maintain one size and style of headings throughout all slides.
Use left alignment only
Avoid justified alignment in your text. It alters the spacing between letters, making quick reading a challenge.
Anton’s tip: Humans perceive the shape of the word, not just the letters.
Don't overload with fonts
Opt for display fonts over artistic ones. Looking for great fonts? Try Fontshare.
Anton’s tip: Usually, classic fonts like Helvetica ensure great readability.

Even before COVID hit humanity in 2020, healthcare was already under a lot of strain. Expanding global populations have put pressure on infrastructure and evolution hasn’t been as fast or as effective as many had hoped. When you add in the problems caused by a global pandemic, it’s a grim picture, especially for those without the resources to pay for innovative treatments and the best care. But it doesn’t have to be.
