I wanted to try making a PowerPoint using Pandoc and Markdown, but use a template that had some images already in the template. I saw that you can generate a reference document by doing:
- https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#options-affecting-specific-writers
The command:
pandoc -o custom-reference.pptx --print-default-data-file reference.pptx
Then I added a background image to the first slide, saved the custom-reference. I then tried to build the new PPTX using
#cat Makefile
.PHONY: build
build:
pandoc \
--reference-doc custom-pptx-reference.pptx \
--output slides.pptx \
content.md
I then get the following errors:
filbot@pop-os ~/D/D/L/PPTX> make build
pandoc \
--reference-doc custom-pptx-refernce.pptx \
--output slides.pptx \
content.md
Could not find shape for Powerpoint content
make: *** [Makefile:4: build] Error 63
Am I misinterpreting the documentation on how to use this?
