pptx-to-md

Convert PowerPoint (.pptx) to Markdown via Pandoc.

When to Use

Extracting slide content for editing in plain text
Migrating decks into documentation systems
Salvaging content from legacy .pptx files

What's Here

pptx-to-md.cjs — Node script that wraps Pandoc.

External Dependencies

node (≥ 16)
pandoc (≥ 3.0) on PATH

Usage

node pptx-to-md.cjs deck.pptx
node pptx-to-md.cjs deck.pptx --output deck.md
node pptx-to-md.cjs deck.pptx --extract-media ./media

Output Structure

PowerPoint	Markdown
Each slide	`## Slide N` heading
Title placeholder	First line under heading
Body text / bullets	Paragraphs and lists
Speaker notes	Quoted block at slide end
Embedded images	Saved to `--extract-media` dir, referenced as `![]()`

Notes

Animations, transitions, and complex layouts are lost — content survives, motion does not
Pair with md-to-pptx for round-trip workflows (lossy for layouts, lossless for content)
Use --extract-media to keep images as separate files instead of inlining
