Usage

This plugin allows you to convert Markdown content into PowerPoint presentations by simply providing the Markdown text.

For any questions about text formatting, please refer to md2pptx's user guide.

Parameters

• markdown_content (required): The Markdown content to be converted to a PowerPoint presentation
• title (optional): The title of the presentation
• theme (optional): The theme/design to use for the presentation; default white template will be used if unprovided

Special Note – Custom theme & variable theme usage:

1. Create a folder named templates under your_dify_src/docker/volumes/plugin_daemon/cwd/stvlynn/ppt-0.0.1@xxx/_assets.
2. Place your template PowerPoint file (e.g., custom.pptx) inside the templates folder. Make sure the name of the variable theme name matches the file name (e.g., "custom").
3. You may want to delete existing slides from your template, as the generated slides will be added to the file rather than overwriting it.

- Use horizontal rule `---` to separate slides

### Content Formatting
- Use unordered lists (`*` or `-`) for key points
