Powerpoint has a basic set of tools for drawing shapes and lines into slides. To use the hands-free pen and drawing tool, you need to click on the “Review” tab and then select “Start Inking” (the same tool can be displayed in the “Draw” tab on Office 365). You can also use the contour tool and draw a basic shape located to the right of the “Home” tab. If you’re using Powerpoint instead of MS Paint or another drawing program, you can export your slides to several types of image files when you save them.

    • Advice

    • If you plan to edit the slide, save a copy in .pptx format. After converting to an image file, you will not be able to take advantage of the usual Powerpoint tools when editing.
    • You can open a new, blank slide by going to the “Home” tab and selecting “New Slide,” then choosing “Blank” from the list of options that appear.
    • For tablet or touch screen users, Powerpoint 2016 also supports the use of a stylus to make drawing in Ink Mode easier.

    Powerpoint has a basic set of tools for drawing shapes and lines into slides. To use the hands-free pen and drawing tools, you need to click on the “Review” tab and then select “Start Inking” (the same tool can be displayed in the “Draw” tab on Office 365).
