Is there an automated way to add slide numbers to your PowerPoint presentation? Numbering your slides can let you know which slide you’re currently on. In this tutorial we’ll walk you through the steps to add or change slide numbers for PowerPoint 2016 \/ 2019 presentation in Windows 10.<\/p>\n

Part 1: Add Slide Number to PowerPoint Presentation<\/strong><\/p>\n

  1. To add slide numbers, open your PowerPoint presentation. Select the Insert<\/strong> tab on the ribbon, click the “Header & Footer<\/strong>” button.\n

    \"\"\n<\/li>\n

  2. The “Header and Footer” dialog box will appear. In the Slide tab, check the box next to “Slide number<\/strong>“. If you want to disable slide numbers on the title slide, check the box “Don’t show on the title slide<\/strong>“.\n

    \"\"\n<\/li>\n

  3. Click on “Apply to All<\/strong>“. PowerPoint will automatically add slide numbers to each of your slides in the bottom-right corner.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
