@vikasgrr,

Please try using following Java alternate on your end.

public static void TestClonning()
{
             String pptxFile = "SB1.pptx";
            String pptxResult ="C:\\Aspose Data\\Target.pptx";

            //Open file
            LoadOptions lo = new LoadOptions(LoadFormat.Pptx);
            Presentation  target = new Presentation();
            Presentation presToCopy = new Presentation(pptxFile, lo);

            //Copy slides
            for(int i=0;i<presToCopy.getSlides().size();i++)
            {
                target.getSlides().addClone(presToCopy.getSlides().get_Item(i)); 
            }
            //Delete default slide
                target.getSlides().removeAt(0);

            //Save new file
            target.Save(pptxResult + "Result.pptx", SaveFormat.Pptx);

@vikasgrr,

I have observed your comments. I have shared sample code with you. This will help you to achieve your requirements.

Presentation pres = new Presentation(“Adv-PowerPoint-WKSP.pptx”);
pres.getSlides().insertEmptySlide(0, pres.getMasters().get_Item(0).getLayoutSlides().get_Item(0));
IAutoShape sh = (AutoShape)pres.getSlides().get_Item(0).getShapes().get_Item(0);
sh.getTextFrame().setText(“First Slide”);
pres.save(“saved.pptx”, SaveFormat.Pptx);

For your above query please visit this documentation link for further details.

Hi Adnan,
Thanks for the reply.
Actually my questions are:

  1. while merging multiple ppt’s I want to maintain sections as well. My result ppt should contain sections too.
  2. what if I added a new section into the ppt using addSection() method then how can I add multiple slides into this section. I am able to add only one slide.

I need urgent help in this.

@vikasgrr,

I have observed your requirements and like to share that the slide you add in addSection() method actually symbolize the start index slide for that particular section. You can continue adding slide afterwards and they shall fall in same section that you previously added. As soon as you will add a new section and add slides afterwards then they will be added inside new section. I hope the share elaboration will be helpful.

Hi mudassir,
I tried to add an empty section at index 0 so that I can add some slides into it. but getting error:

Exception in thread “main” class com.aspose.slides.PptxEditException: Index must lay within [0…Count-1] range.
com.aspose.slides.SectionCollection.addEmptySection(Unknown Source).

I am sharing my Java code with u.
please refer slideCloner class.src.zip (3.1 KB)

Please help me to add multiple slides into the one section or copy the section and slide from the source ppt,
