I want to make a template presentation for others to open and fill in the
correct areas. Besides using the Master Slide option to select slide layout,
text font, color, and size is there anyway I can insert or create
placeholders that instruct the user what sort of information to include?
Like instead of it saying "click and insert title here" I could personalize
it to say "click and insert project 1 title here" and stuff like that. I
know in Word you can do it using a Text Form Field found under the Forms
toolbar, but I can't seem to find that on PPT. Please help.
 
Unfortunately, current versions of PPT do not allow us to add placeholders.

PPT 2007 does have this feature, though. (I'm excited!)
 
The only way I know is to create 'ready made slides'.

The user can then just 'duplicate' these slides and then edit the text as
needed.

That way you can include any pointers as to what text to enter in each box
you make
