And it still isn’t really a problem in PowerPoint 2003, as the shadow animates with the text, no matter which shadow it is. This is not usually a problem…until you animate the slide. So you may not realize you’ve applied a shape shadow, and not a text shadow. Now, this is all well and good, but if you apply a shape shadow to an unfilled textbox, the text receives the shadow. Shape Shadow: Note that here I’ve used the shadow settings in the Shape Effects options, not in the Text Effects options. Shape shadows are added via the Shadow Styles button on the Drawing toolbar (PPT 2003) or on the Drawing Tools Format tab, under the Shape Effects | Shadow options (PPT 2007). Text Shadow: Note that I’ve used the shadow settings in the Text Effects options, not in the Shape Effects options. This is especially useful if you don’t want the typical drop shadow that’s offset to the bottom right. You can also add text shadows in PPT 2007 on the Drawing Tools Format tab, under the Text Effects | Shadow options.
Text shadows are added by clicking the shadow icon on the Formatting toolbar (PPT 2003) or the Home tab (PPT 2007). PowerPoint has a two different types of shadows: text shadows and shape shadows.
