paper-slides

You can convert a compiled research paper into presentation slides by automatically generating a slide-by-slide outline and exporting it as Beamer PDF and editable PPTX files. This process includes auto-generated speaker notes and a full talk manuscript.

Yes, generating both Beamer PDF and editable PPTX from the same paper is supported. The system outputs a compiled Beamer PDF alongside a PowerPoint version for quick edits, requiring a LaTeX toolchain and python-pptx respectively.

Yes, you need a LaTeX toolchain to compile and create Beamer slides from your paper. An editable PPTX export is also generated using the python-pptx dependency, alongside optional tooling for assets and references.

To adapt slide counts for different conference venues and talk lengths, provide your preferred talk settings and paper directory. The system scales the generated presentation for oral, spotlight, and poster formats.

The best way to generate speaker notes and a talk script from a paper is using an end-to-end workflow that transforms paper sections into a presentation-ready deck. It auto-generates embedded notes and a complete talk manuscript for practice.

A limitation of using python-pptx for research presentation export is that it handles editable PPTX generation but requires a separate LaTeX toolchain for Beamer PDF output. Optional tooling is also needed to process assets and references.
