Something like that?
After years of hiatus I finally dedicated some time to my old idea (converting FOP IF to the PPTX output, without modifying FOP codebase). And found the result is almost useless if that PPTX needs to be edited (e.g. translated) as all the text is split into separate lines and even these are broken further into smaller chunks in the case of inline styles. So I am leaving this idea. https://github.com/doctribute/fop-to-powerpoint-converter Jan
