📌 Why this matters
Highlighting text transforms your slides from information dumps into scannable presentations that actually guide your audience's attention. When you emphasize key points, statistics, or action items, you're creating visual anchors that help viewers process complex information quickly. This becomes especially powerful during live presentations where people are trying to follow along, take notes, or photograph important slides. Your highlighted text acts as a roadmap, telling your audience exactly what matters most and ensuring your key messages don't get lost in the details.
