How do I create header/footer information in an OpenOffice.org presentation? I want my information to show up on every slide.
- Go to the 'Background view' of the
presentation [There are three small icons under the left side ruler - the
middle icon is the 'Background
view' - it looks like a box with a dark bottom edge].
- To enter text, for
example, click on the big 'T' icon on the left edge.
- Create a text input area on your presentation by dragging your
mouse in the desired location.
If you want to insert a page/slide number:
- while still in Background view,
- select: Insert-Fields-Page Numbers.
NOTE: There is no option for the total number of pages/slides,
however, so if you need to enter 'Page X of N', you will have to
hardcode the 'of N' portion.
When you are finished adding text/logos/etc.
Click on the left-most icon under the left side ruler. This
icon is called 'Slide view' and will return you to slide editing mode. Any
slide in your presentation will have the data entered in 'Background view'.
