OPF Image Treatment
Full-Bleed
A single image extends to every slide edge, creating an immersive visual moment.
Best Fit
Title slides, section dividers, campaign stories, and emotional proof points.
Photography Guidance
Use a high-resolution landscape image with a clean negative-space region for text. Source at least 1920 by 1080 pixels and avoid important subjects near slide edges.
Avoid
Avoid full-bleed photos for dense analytical slides or images with important detail at every edge.
Treatment Practices
Use fit cover so the image fills the slide without letterboxing.
Reserve a quiet region for text before choosing the crop.
Add an overlay when text appears directly on the image.

General Image Rules
Crop with intent
Choose fit, position, and size based on the subject and message, not just available space.
Protect readability
Text over images needs enough contrast, an intentional overlay, or a separate text surface.
Respect image truth
Avoid filters or crops that distort evidence, screenshots, charts, or compliance imagery.
Keep a system
Use a small set of image treatments consistently so photo-heavy decks still feel coherent.
