Maybe it is time to have a PPT to FOP translator.
Yegor has done Postscript to Escher Drawing conversion for me
including fonts it is not perfect but his current efforts are a lot
better than his first one.
Yegor has HSLF reorganization to do, but PPT -> FOP for PDF, SVG, etc
is on my development list. Q2 - Q3 time frame.
Yegor?

calculates them.
Well, the FOP project has a TTFReader already... maybe it's time
for them to push all that into a font-commons package so that POI
can depend on it. :-)
