Displaying the Ruler in MS PowerPoint

If you are having a hard time manipulating or lining up the text in a PowerPoint document or slide, displaying the ruler may help.  The ruler is the measurement bar that shows across the top of a Word document and allows you to adjust tabs, indents, and margins.

To display the ruler in PowerPoint 2007:

1. Click the View tab
2. Near the center, locate the box next to Ruler.  Click in the check box.

This will display the ruler on every slide.  Adjust tabs and indents as you would in MS Word.
