PowerPoint Tips

How to Fill Text Color With an Image in Microsoft PowerPoint:

• Go to Ribbon > Insert > Text Box and draw a text box on your slide.
• From the Home tab, select the font you want to use. Choose a thick font so that more of the picture is visible inside the text.
• Type your text within the text box on the slide. Set a large font size.
• Select the text on the slide. This also displays the Drawing Tools tab on the Ribbon.

Once you’re there, PowerPoint gives you two ways to fill the text with a picture.

Method 1: Go to Drawing Tools > Format > Text Fill > Picture. Choose your graphic from a file on your desktop or from an online source.

Method 2: Right-click on the selected text and click on Format Text Effects. Go the first option (Text Fill & Outline) under the Text Options. Choose Picture or Texture Fill and then choose your graphic from a file on your desktop or from an online source.

You can change the typed text, the font, the font size, and any other attributes even after inserting the picture.

Also, the Text Options give you lots of room to stylize the picture within the text. For instance, you can set a transparency level with the slider and also offset the picture so that the right area is visible within the text.
