00:10Prezi
00:10Prezi gives a lot of ways for you to edit and style text.
00:14In order to do that, let us insert a text first.
00:17So let us go to insert and let us go to text.
00:21Once you do that, a text will appear.
00:23So you can actually drag it around and increase the size and so forth.
00:26You can also type in the, you can increase the writing area just like that and increase the size.
00:32So you can go over here and type in anything.
00:34For example, this is a test sentence just like this.
00:39So test sentence is typed down.
00:41You can actually press enter and a new line will actually appear.
00:45So this is new line as you can see.
00:48So if you want to format the text, you can actually see that everything is over here.
00:52So the menu has changed according to the text that I actually chose right here.
00:58So you can select individual text and then change it as well.
01:01Or select whole bunch of text and change it as well.
01:04For example, I can change this new line and then increase its size.
01:08Just like that.
01:09So only that text is being affected right here.
01:13Suppose you want to bold this text right out there.
01:16So you can click bold.
01:17So let us see what these options actually do.
01:22So these are different text styles over here.
01:24For example, I have body text right here.
01:27You can change it.
01:27These are actually presets.
01:29You can change it to title right here.
01:30You can change it to subtitle.
01:32You can change it to body.
01:34Just like that.
01:35You can change it to subtitle too.
01:37So let me just select all of it.
01:38So you can apply this.
01:40Go over here.
01:41Change it to body.
01:43Right?
01:44Select this all.
01:44Send it to subtitle too right here.
01:47Select this.
01:50Double click.
01:51Select the text over here.
01:52You can go over to body.
01:54You can go to body too and so forth.
01:56So these are different text styles that you can apply right there.
02:00There are different fonts as well which you can choose.
02:03Let's say for example for new line.
02:05I want to change the font.
02:06So you can go over here.
02:08Choose from the list of fonts.
02:09But unfortunately, you cannot add your own font in Prezi.
02:13So you can just go over here.
02:14Select the font that you want.
02:16And then that font will be applied over here.
02:18Just like this.
02:19As you can see.
02:20But it applies the font to all of the text right here.
02:25So if you want different font.
02:27Then you should make a new text box.
02:29And then apply the font right there.
02:30If you want different styles.
02:32In the same sentence or so.
02:34So you can actually go over here.
02:36This decreases the font size over here.
02:39Once you click.
02:40There's no numerical value over here.
02:41Or you can increase the font size right here.
02:44The bold is disabled.
02:46Because this font does not support bold.
02:48So let me change this into another font.
02:50It actually does.
02:51And you can see that the bold option is actually there.
02:54You can italicize this as well.
02:57And over here.
02:58You can also choose a background color.
03:00As you can see.
03:00So you can go over here.
03:02There are different background colors that you can choose.
03:04So you were to click this.
03:05Then the background color of the text box actually changes.
03:08You can see that the background color actually changes.
03:11Just like that.
03:12So let us just go over here.
03:14Into background color.
03:15And you can see that you can change the opacity.
03:18So you can bring this down.
03:19And here it is not that clear.
03:21Let me just bring the text box over here.
03:23On to this section.
03:24And you can see that the background is actually there.
03:26So you can change the background color.
03:28From over here.
03:29Just like that.
03:30Increase the opacity.
03:31Decrease the opacity.
03:32And so forth.
03:33Here's the color as well.
03:35So there's the text color that you can choose.
03:37So you can choose white over here.
03:39If you want to.
03:40You can choose standard color.
03:41And so forth.
03:42But for text color itself.
03:43There is no opacity setting.
03:45So you have to choose the one.
03:47Which best suits you.
03:48Right.
03:48But usually in text.
03:49We don't use opacity anyways.
03:51These are the alignment options right here.
03:54So you can left align it.
03:55Center align it over here.
03:57Right align it.
03:57Or justify it.
03:59So for justification.
04:00You need a longer sentence.
04:01So let me just type that in for you.
04:03So let's go over here.
04:05And I'm going to say.
04:07Justify this sentence.
04:09This is an example text.
04:13Alright.
04:13There you go.
04:14So you can see that justification is actually being done over here.
04:17And the left.
04:18And everything seems balanced out over here on the right side.
04:22So you can go over here.
04:23You can fully left align it.
04:26Click over here.
04:27Fully left align it over here.
04:28Or you can justify it in a left align way.
04:32That's the bullet list as well.
04:33So if you want to add in bullets.
04:35You can actually go over here.
04:36And bullet points are actually added in right over here.
04:39There's the decrease indentation.
04:41And the increase indentation over here.
04:43So you can increase the indentation.
04:44From the left side.
04:46Or decrease it over here.
04:47Just like that.
04:48And select it.
04:49Double click it.
04:50And select the text.
04:51Just like this.
04:53Increase.
04:53And decrease the indentation.
04:55Right here.
04:55Just like that.
04:56So that is how you can work.
04:59Work and edit with text inside of Pretzi.
05:02Hope you guys learned something as always.
