What problem does it solve? Turning a research paper into a clear, well-structured presentation for lab meetings or academic talks is time-consuming, requiring manual figure cropping, layout design, and content summarization. This Skill automates the entire pipeline from PDF to a finished .pptx file. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Paper-to-PPT Conversion: Reads a paper PDF page by page, extracts embedded figures with PyMuPDF, and builds a 6-10 slide deck covering background, method architecture, experiments, contributions, and limitations. - Template Style Matching: Parses a user-provided reference .pptx to extract colors, fonts, and layout, then applies that visual style to the generated slides. - Speaker Notes Alignment: Accepts an outline or speech draft (.docx/.txt/.md) and structures each slide's bullets according to the user's intended narrative. - Use Case: A graduate student needs to present a paper at a weekly group meeting. They provide the paper PDF, a lab-standard PPT template, and their speaking outline, and receive a styled slide deck with cropped figures and complete captions. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to turn your paper PDF into a presentation by providing the PDF path along with an optional reference template and speaking outline.
