How to insert headers and footers in Microsoft PowerPoint 2013

Headers and footers in PowerPoint 2013 exist in the Slide Master. You decide if you would like them to show or not. If you look in the Slide Master, you will see them on the slides. However unless you actually add them they stay hidden.

To add a header or footer

  1. Click on the Insert Ribbon
  2. Click on Header & Footer
  3. Select the elements you want to show
