If a slide is removed from the presentation, and the slide contains an embedded object, the removal of the slide will corrupt the presentation. If you open the presentation created by Aspose, PowerPoint will detect the corruption and will ask the user to repair the file.
I am using Office 2010, .ppt format, Aspose.Slides 6.3.0.
I have attached a small Visual Studio project and deck to demonstrate the issue.
Instructions:
1. Run the attached project.
2. Open the Deck2.ppt file produced in the bin/debug folder.
3. PowerPoint will detect the corruption and will only be able to partially repair the file.
Thanks!
Hi Tim,
I have worked with the project code shared by you and have generated the presentation using that. I have not been able to observe presentation corruption issue on my end. For your kind reference, I have attached the images of presentation opened in PowerPoint 2010 and PowerPoint version info. Please share that which version of PowerPoint you are using on your end.
Many Thanks,
Thank you for the image of the remaining slide. Please take careful note of your image of the first slide (the only slide left in the deck) which shows the corruption.
Please look at the spacing/formatting of the bullet points. Compare this to the original (unmodified deck).
The formatting has been removed from the bullet points. They are no longer proper bullet points as they originally existed in the original deck before slide 2 was removed.
This is an artifact of the corruption and shows that the deck has been corrupted and improperly repaired.
I am using PowerPoint 2010.
Thanks!
