Theme colors
Map your primary, secondary, accent, text, background, and hyperlink colors into PowerPoint's standard theme color slots.
PowerPoint brand colors
Add your brand color palette to a PowerPoint template.
PPTX Theme Editor turns brand guidelines into a usable PowerPoint palette. Open a .pptx, map company colors to theme slots, add named custom colors, clean up recent colors, and download the updated template.
Use brand hex colors in PowerPoint
Brand guidelines usually start as hex values, but PowerPoint templates need those colors stored in the right PPTX theme files. This editor gives you a direct interface for changing the reusable palette behind a deck without rebuilding every slide.
It is useful for marketing teams, designers, consultants, and presentation operations work where a reusable template needs to match a company color system.
Where the palette is added
Custom colors
Add named palette entries for extra brand colors that should appear with the template's reusable colors.
Recent colors
Inspect or remove old values from PowerPoint's Recent Colors picker before handing the template to a team or client.

- Add custom colors. Insert named brand colors when your palette has more values than the standard theme slots.
