If you're having issues with converting your PPTX, and you're using Office 365, please install the latest branch with remotes::install_github("datalorax/slidex@office365-changes") (as mentioned in #6) and give it a try. If you run into issues, please report them here.

Here is a simple pptx file (Office 365, don't know if that matters) that illustrates several conversion problems:

• No bullets convert on slide 2 (this seems to me the most important issue since bullet lists are so important in slides)
• The link on slide 3 shows up twice and at least one indent level is wrong

I'm attaching the pptx file. This was converted after installing the current default package from github. test_from_mod_3.pptx

Here is the Rmd file:

Also, maybe this is out of scope, but conversion doesn't work for pptx files saved using Libreoffice because Libreoffice doesn't set a value for lang.

Just stumbled across this project: https://github.com/ssine/pptx2md/ It's creating generic markdown (in particular none of the xaringan extensions you're interested in) but just testing it on a few documents it seems to do a nice job. (Although images should use ![]() rather than html I think.)

Oh interesting. Thanks for that link. Looks similar in spirit. I had no idea it exisited. I appreciate the example. I will try to see if I can make time next week sometime to dig into it and see if I can figure out what's going on.
