Frequently Asked Questions
What's the best AI image size for PowerPoint?
For 16:9 slides, use 1920x1080px. For 4:3 slides, 1024x768px works best. Always generate at 2x resolution (3840x2160px) then let PowerPoint downscale - this prevents blurriness when projecting.
How to make AI images look professional in presentations?
Use consistent color palettes, add subtle shadows/depth, and maintain negative space. FluxNote's 'Corporate Visuals' preset automatically applies these optimizations with one click.
Can I edit AI-generated images after adding to PowerPoint?
Yes, but with limitations. Always export from FluxNote as PNG with transparency. PowerPoint's 'Format Picture' tools can adjust brightness/contrast, but complex edits should be done in FluxNote's built-in editor first.
What AI image style gets the most engagement?
3D isometric illustrations outperform other styles by 22% (2026 data). They provide depth without distracting realism. Pair with bold typography for maximum impact.
How many AI images should I use per presentation?
3-5 custom AI visuals per 10 slides is ideal. More than 8 total increases cognitive load. FluxNote's 'Visual Balance Score' helps maintain this ratio automatically.
