https://github.com/pythonicrubyist/ruby_powerpoint Note that it only works with new-style pptx files. For the old format, GOOD LUCK. They are poorly-documented and tricky to work with. Tools like Docsplit (http://documentcloud.github.io/docsplit/) might do what you want for these, but they depend on LibreOffice - and correspondingly, can only read PPT files that work in LibreOffice. One gotcha: none of these will replicate any of the more complex behaviors (animations, transitions). ruby_powerpoint doesn't even give text style info back, just text and images. --Matt Jones -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
