Colour - Good Use a colour of font that contrasts sharply with the
background Ex: blue font on white background
Use colour to reinforce the logic of your structure Ex: light blue title and dark blue text
Use colour to emphasize a point But only use this occasionally

background colour is hard to read Using colour for decoration is distracting and
annoying. Using a different colour for each point is unnecessary
Using a different colour for secondary points is also unnecessary Trying to be creative can also be bad

Fonts - Good Use at least an 18-point font Use different size fonts for main points and secondary
points this font is 24-point, the main point font is 28-point, and the title
font is 36-point
Use a standard font like Times New Roman or Arial CAPITALIZE ONLY WHEN NECESSARY. IT IS
DIFFICULT TO READ
