Google slides – custom font styles, H1-H5 and multiple body styles?

[mrlister]

Apologies for probably posting this in the wrong forums it's not very clear. I'm trying to build a work theme with Google slides using multiple styles and saving these styles for staff.

We're a  small creative agency and our current presentation is built in keynote. In this presentation we have a few variations of Headings (H1-H5) and Body styles (3 LEVELS). I'm trying to find out (without much success) how I can create a theme with our own formatting across multiple layouts. 

At the moment, I'm presented with a basic level of hierarchy. Can anyone help?

To my knowledge, only Slides supports "themes".

That said, perhaps you could create a template doc with the basic formatting desired, and then create other templates with different layouts using the original template. Now unlike true themes this won't allow for changes to flow, but it might save some work in the development of the end goal of templates with different layouts having the same style.

Hi, thanks for the response.

It seems a lot of themes (google slides, ...which I can download and see how they've been made) have very simple style formatting applied and directly added to at least 2 or 3 text frames across a few masters.

We present way more complex content (normally in keynote) which has multiple editable text frames saved to on master slides to pull into the main pages.

Font styles/groups like that of Google Docs don't seem to exist?

Our template is suppose to work through the business, so it needs to be very flexible (creative, strategy, research etc.)

This may be a very simplistic approach, but we have created several Slides presentations where we have edited the Theme Builder (Master Slides) with colors, logos, and fonts throughout numerous layouts (you can add and delete layout options). Then, we share them as Anyone with the link can view and append the URL with "template" where it provides our users a template copy to edit with their own content. Perhaps this might be helpful to you... Just sharing.
