| # POI-HSLF - Java API To Access Microsoft Powerpoint Format Files ### Overview HSLF is the POI Project's pure Java implementation of the Powerpoint '97(-2007) file format. It does not support the new PowerPoint 2007 .pptx file format, which is not OLE2 based. HSLF provides a way to read, create or modify PowerPoint presentations. In particular, it provides: api for data extraction (text, pictures, embedded objects, sounds) usermodel api for creating, reading and modifying ppt files Note This code currently lives the scratchpad area of the POI SVN repository. Ensure that you have the scratchpad jar or the scratchpad build area in your classpath before experimenting with this code - the main POI jar is not enough. The quick guide documentation provides information on using this API. Comments and fixes gratefully accepted on the POI dev mailing lists. by Avik Sengupta, Nick Burch, Yegor Kozlov
