EXPLANATION:

Convert PowerPoint text into an editable shape using the Intersect command in PowerPoint 2016 for Windows. This technique also works great when you need to use a font that cannot be distributed or shared.

PowerPoint has several features that MAY amaze you, but there's nothing quite like what we will explore on this page—an option to convert regular text into a shape. First of all, this is an undocumented feature. And then, this is such an utterly useful option—people FIND all sorts of excuses to use this feature. For example, you can now easily create logos in PowerPoint without using any other application. Or use a fancy font and then SHARE that presentation with others in the knowledge that recipients can see the font exactly as intended, even if it's not installed on their computers.

Before we begin, you need to know that there are two METHODS through which you can convert text to shapes in PowerPoint:

The Intersect method: By converting text to a single shape. Think of each paragraph or multiple paragraphs as a separate shape

The Fragment method: By converting text into multiple individual shapes. Think of each alphabet as a separate shape
