# Rewrite slides

Use **Rewrite** to improve phrasing, change your tone, lengthen or shorten something, and translate your presentation.

If you want to change the layout or design of your slide, use [**Remix**](https://guide.plusai.com/ai-for-presentations/remix-slides) instead.

## Rewrite a slide

Select the **Rewrite** tab, add a prompt or select a (customizable) preset.&#x20;

You can rewrite a specific text element, a single slide, or your entire presentation.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Pro-tip:** You can undo + redo these changes in Google Slides. Duplicate your slide before using Rewrite if you want to produce multiple options that you can review.
{% endhint %}

You can rewrite your slide as many times as you want. Sometimes it's helpful to string together multiple rewrites, for example, embellishing some copy for a product page, then asking Plus AI to help you make it more succinct.

## Translate slides

You can also use rewrite to translate your presentation.&#x20;

Select the **Language** you want to translate ***to***. (For example, if your slide is in English and you want to translate it into Spanish, select Español in the dropdown.)

Click on the **Translate** preset, which will populate the rewrite instructions.&#x20;

You can rewrite a single slide or your entire presentation (this can take a few minutes.)
