Hey @pal-software! I'm new to PHP. Could you explain how to do it? I did the following ... And it didn't work in my presentation.php file:

include("../include/connection.php");

     //I tried too with include()
      require_once 'PhpPresentation/src/PhpPresentation/Autoloader.php'; //I tried too with include()
      \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Autoloader::register();

      //I tried too with include()
      require_once 'Common/src/Common/Autoloader.php';
      \PhpOffice\Common\Autoloader::register();

      $objPHPPowerPoint = new PhpPresentation();

      echo "TESTE: ";
      exit();

I ran echo "TEST ", just to see if it worked, but it failed with error 500.

I use this (example):

// For presentation works my PhpOffice directory include 2 subdirs:
//     - PhpPresentation (PhpOffice Presentation Library)
//     - Common  (PhpOffice Common Library)

$baseDir = '<PATH TO PhpOffice DIR>/PhpOffice';

require ($baseDir . '/PhpPresentation/src/PhpPresentation/Autoloader.php');
\PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Autoloader::register();

require ($baseDir . '/Common/src/Common/Autoloader.php');
\PhpOffice\Common\Autoloader::register();

// here we include namespaces which will be use
// for example:
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\PhpPresentation;
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\DocumentLayout;
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Shape\RichText\Run;
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Style\Fill;
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Style\Shadow;
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Style\Color;
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Style\Border;
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Style\Alignment;
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\IOFactory;
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Slide;

use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Shape\Chart\Type\Bar;
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Shape\Chart\Series;

use \PhpOffice\Common\Drawing;
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Shape\RichText;
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Shape\Table;
use \PhpOffice\PhpPresentation\Style\Outline;

// and now...

// Create presentation
//------------------------------------------------------------
$presentation = new PhpPresentation();
$presentation->getLayout()->setDocumentLayout(
    DocumentLayout::LAYOUT_A4,
    true
);

// Add slide to presentation (is first slide here)
$slide = $presentation->getSlide(0);

//region === MAKE SLIDE 

// some code which make slide 
// (draw line for example. from point (10px, 10px) to point (200px, 200px) with color = black, line width = 1pt, style = single line)

$shape = $slide->createLineShape( 10, 10,  200, 200);
$shape->getBorder()
    ->setColor(new Color('00000000'))
    ->setLineWidth(1)
    ->setLineStyle(Border::LINE_SINGLE);

/// In real I use some helper functions which I wrote for myself 
/// Direct use of methods of the phppresentation lib .... are inconvenient for me :)

//endregion === MAKE SLIDE

//=== Output presentation (upload to user with name presentation.pptx)
//
