PPTX creation, editing, and analysis
Overview
A .pptx file is a ZIP archive containing XML files and resources. Create, edit, or analyze PowerPoint presentations using text extraction, raw XML access, or html2pptx workflows. Apply this skill for programmatic presentation creation and modification.
Reading and analyzing content
Text extraction
To read the text contents of a presentation, convert the document to markdown:
# Convert document to markdown
python -m markitdown path-to-file.pptx
Raw XML access
Raw XML access is required for: comments, speaker notes, slide layouts, animations, design elements, and complex formatting. For any of these features, unpack a presentation and read its raw XML contents.
