⚇ ddot.it PowerPoint Reader

A ddot.it reader for PowerPoint files (.pptx). It recognizes triples in slide text and speaker notes.

NOTE: Some examples use the ddot.it/this command.

Standard Syntax

Slide Text

Any text box or shape text on a slide can contain ddot.it triples.

ddot.it/this ..project.. Code Red
..status.. active

Triples can appear alongside normal slide content. The reader ignores lines that do not match ddot.it syntax.

Speaker Notes

Speaker notes are the preferred location for ddot.it triples, as they do not affect the visual presentation of the slide.

This slide covers the onboarding flow.

Notes on .pptx Format

PowerPoint .pptx files are ZIP archives containing XML. The reader processes:

  • ppt/slides/slide*.xml — slide text content
  • ppt/notesSlides/notesSlide*.xml — speaker notes
