I have a question related to PPT Presentations embedded in the Word
document:
We get many Word-Documents that have lots of embedded MS Powerpoint
Slide presentations. The PPT presentations always consist of one single
slide. The authors are advised to use PPT as a drawing tool for (simple)
for their graphics. The simple graphics contain boxes connected with
lines and some text. When we convert to structured xhtml the embedded
PPTs are removed without a trace.
Our current procedure to deal with this is: We make a printscreen of the
slide and replace it in the Word file. This is a tedious work and we
lose the connection between the PPT source and the Word File. I saw that
.emf is on your roadmap, and I know that PPT can be saved as .emf file.
So maybe you can envision a better way of dealing with embedded PPT slides?
Thank you for any advice on how to deal with the situation.
Please send us a sample document having embedded PPT slides.
MS-Word very often automatically creates alternate representations of
the same graphic. For example, your DOCX files could contain a PPT slide
and as an alternate format, the corresponding EMF graphic.
If this is the case, once we'll support the EMF format[*], your authors
will not have to change their habits.

MathML but does not support EMF yet. EMF support is indeed at the top of
our TODO list.
