Dear list,

I have a requirement to embed a user editable chart in a PPT presentation using only Java on Linux. A fall-back position would be to embed an image of that chart in the PPT presentation.

However, I found this discussion from 11/2007:

I know this probably sounds old fashioned, but would it not be possible to use OLE - could you simply embed the Excel chart as an object into the PPT
slide?

To link steps 1 and 2 you need to convert the Excel chart into an
image. Unfortunately there is no way in POI to export/render Excel
charts into images.

Regards,
Yegor
My question whether this is still true. Is there no way to directly put a chart into PPT using POI?
Cheers,
Steve
