4.      A new ‘Office Add-ins’ window will open. Double-tap on the ‘Pro Word Cloud’ option.

5.      The ‘Pro Word Cloud’ pane will open on the right side of the presentation window. You can change the settings, such as color scheme, style, etc. Additionally, select the size of the word cloud and the number of wordsto include.

6.      Mark or unmark the checkbox for the ‘Remove common words’ option to remove or keep them, respectively.
