Getting Started
Q: How do I get started with SlidesRx?
A: Start by downloading the free SlidesRx Checklist at slidesrx.com/tools. You can also email us a draft of your presentation or poster, and we’ll provide feedback or formatting help.
Q: Can I send you my existing presentation or poster?

Design and Formatting
Q: What fonts and colors does SlidesRx use?
A: We use Montserrat for headings and Lato for body text. Our color palette includes:
- Soft Navy for headers
- Orange Pop for highlights
- Lime Signal for positive findings
- Charcoal for clean, readable text

A: Yes. We’ll work with your branding while applying SlidesRx clarity standards. We also create custom templates for hospitals, schools, and departments.
Charts & Visuals
Q: How can I improve my charts quickly?
A: Use these three rules:
1. Label all axes and units
2. Use one-sentence chart titles
3. Remove 3D effects and simplify colors
Q: Can I get help choosing the right chart?
A: Yes—SlidesRx can recommend the right chart type for your data and even convert your existing tables into clearer visualizations.
Presenting & Posters
Q: What’s the difference between a poster and a slide deck?
A: Posters must tell the story without your voice—use bold visuals and big fonts. Slides are verbal tools—design them to support your spoken message. We help tailor your content for either format.
Q: Can SlidesRx help me prepare for a talk?
A: Yes! We help with slide flow, timing, speaker notes, anticipated questions, and backup versions so you’re fully prepared.
Support & Follow-up
Q: Can I get feedback on my slides?
A: Yes. We offer individual coaching and asynchronous feedback. You can even send a slide deck in progress for a clarity review.
Q: Do you offer institutional or team support?
A: We provide custom workshops, departmental templates, and team training packages. Email hello@slidesrx.com to explore options.
