Campus Sub-brand Logos

This template was built for general use using the UC San Diego logo. For units wanting to use their unit-specific sub-brand logo, follow the steps and tips below.

  • PNG files work best, as they have a transparent background.
  • To update the logo on one of the cover designs, select the logo image and click Change Picture from the Picture Format tab. To adjust the crop, click the arrow on the Crop button and choose Aspect Ratio/Original or Fit.
  • Content slides, like this one, can be tight on space, making it harder to fit unit sub-brand logos legibly. We recommend keeping the main UC San Diego logo on these slides. If you need to update the page header logo, click on Slide Master in the View tab and select the slide layout you wish to update. Follow the steps above for replacing the image.

  • Font files have also been included in the Zip file for this template for convenience.
  • Be sure to install the needed fonts before using this template.
  • When pasting in content from other sources, use Paste and Match Style to prevent unintended style and font changes.

PowerPoint vs Keynote vs Google Slides

  • File conversion between Keynote, PowerPoint or Google Slides can result in distortion of formatting and graphics. For this reason, we recommend creating your presentation in the platform that will be used for presenting.
  • If you need to distribute the PowerPoint file through Google Drive, zip/compress the file before it is uploaded so that the recipients must download the file to their computer and use PowerPoint to open it. If a PowerPoint file is opened in Google Drive, it will automatically be converted to Google Slides.
  • When routing to stakeholders for review, consider saving the file as a PDF to prevent edits that could introduce formatting issues.
