DITA to PowerPoint: Considerations
Creating Microsoft PowerPoint slides from DITA is an advanced functionality.
-
You should have access to the Microsoft PowerPoint application.
-
You should have familiarity with Microsoft PowerPoint slide creation and master layouts. Any changes to slide appearance or layout are done in master layouts.
-
The map and topic format should be optimized for slide content. (In other words, not too much text!)
-
Only Heretto CCMS Administrators can create a publishing scenario for DITA to PowerPoint.
-
Only Administrators can modify the DITA to PowerPoint plugin.
-
It's helpful to have oXygen available if you want to modify the default DITA to PowerPoint plugin.
-
The plugin works in DITA-OT 2.5.4. You may need to install it if you do not already have this version in your Heretto CCMS instance.
-
Any modifications to the default plugin are not covered by Heretto CCMS Support.
