SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires pypdf, pptx, image2-style-image-generation, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the creation of high-fidelity academic presentations (PPTs) from research papers and supplementary information (SI) figures, saving time and ensuring consistency.

Core Features & Use Cases

Full-Deck Generation: Automatically generate complete presentation decks from papers and SI figures.
Image2-Only Route: Enforces the use of Image2-style full-slide images for the highest fidelity.
Fallback PPTX: Provides a lower-fidelity fallback PPTX when Image2 is unavailable.
Use Case: Imagine you have a research paper with detailed figures. Use this Skill to create a full PPT deck with high-fidelity images from the paper and SI figures.

Quick Start

Use the academic-slide-pragmatic-fallback skill to generate a full PPT deck from the paper 'paper.pdf' and its SI figures.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema

How do I generate a PPT from a research paper and SI figures?▼

The Skill generates high-fidelity academic presentations by enforcing Image2-style full-slide images. This mechanism ensures maximum visual fidelity by rendering entire slides as generated images based on the paper content.

What happens to academic presentation generation when Image2 is unavailable?▼

When Image2 is unavailable, the Skill provides a lower-fidelity fallback PPTX. This ensures you still get a generated presentation deck, although without the high-fidelity full-slide images.

Do I need pypdf and python-pptx to build academic slides from PDFs?▼

Yes, you need pypdf and python-pptx to build academic slides from PDFs. These dependencies are required for parsing the research paper and constructing the final PPTX file outputs.

Can I use SI figures directly in a generated academic presentation deck?▼

Yes, you can use SI figures directly in a generated academic presentation deck. The Skill specifically incorporates supplementary information figures into the final generated PPT slides.

What are the limitations of the fallback PPTX for academic presentations?▼

The limitation of the fallback PPTX is lower fidelity compared to the Image2 route. It is used only when Image2-style image generation is unavailable, resulting in standard slides instead of full-slide images.
