For PROJECTED presentations, use light print on a dark background. Your eyes are attracted to light.
For PRINTED presentations or those to be viewed on the computer screen, use dark print on a light background.
CONTRAST MATTERS!

One of the biggest mistakes that people make is to put too many words on a slide. Your audience doesn’t want to listen to you as you read to them… and they can become easily distracted by the excess of information on the slide.
Remember that your audience will respond better to your voice.
