In order to delete a guide, click and drag the guide off the edge of your powerpoint "page." You will see the guide gradually fade away.Īs I said, I don't have Publisher installed, and have tried to avoid using it whenever possible-but if I remember correctly, the guides work similarly to the way I have just described. Not as simple as in the Adobe products, but it can be done. As you drag the new guide, it shows you the distance you have dragged it, so if you pay attention you can set up guides at specific intervals. You can add additional guides either using the method that mentions in the comments above, or by placing your cursor on top of one of the guides until it turns into a double-sided arrow, holding down the Ctrl key (for Windows-not sure the equivalent key on a Mac) and dragging the new guide where you want to put it. The window now will show you two centered guides, one horizontal and one vertical. I don't have Publisher on my computer, so I can't show you an example in Publisher, but in Powerpoint, you access the guides by going to the view menu, and on the "Show" portion of the ribbon, check the box that says guides. Both Powerpoint and Publisher allow you to use guides similar to those used in Photoshop, Illustrator or InDesign.
