Thanks a lot for the offer. If you could help me that'd be great. I
probably just did it wrong. In try #1 I just removed the master slides that
I was using and I hoped everything would revert to a kind of "default" and
that mostly worked apart from the copyright footer and the headers were
gone as well. I've just tried again and instead of reverting to a blank
"white" layout I've just kept our master slides but removed all references
to the company. I'm not super happy with that but better than before.

I'll upload a new version to Jira.

For this one, it's not really relevant anymore as I've already done the
work of converting to Asciidoc (just need time to finish it all up, some
slides don't fit anymore like they used to in PowerPoint*) but all the
other ones (hundreds of slides) have the same issue and I don't really want
to manually remove the copyright footer from all of them. So, if you figure
out an easy way to clean them I'd appreciate it very much.

* This may be a stupid question and I'm no frontend guy but how careful do
I need to be regarding content size and different resolutions etc.? Does it
all scale and should work on more or less any resolution or are there any
maximums I need to remember? Any ideas?

I'll try that, that's a good idea.

Thank you,
