Microsoft PowerPoint Writer
FME can write features (which have been styled by the PowerPointStyler transformer) to a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation.
Writer Overview
The Microsoft PowerPoint Writer writes features one at a time to a *.pptx presentation. The .pptx file format has been the default Microsoft PowerPoint file format since the release of PowerPoint 2007. (The .ppt file format is not officially supported.)
The writer must be used in conjunction with the PowerPointStyler transformer, which styles features appropriately for this format.
The writer can either create a new presentation, or append to the end of an existing template presentation. In either case, the presentation will be saved in a new location so that the template is not overwritten.
