    How to extract all text from a ppt file

    How to extract all text from a ppt file?

    It is hidden in various text boxes that don't get selected in one go. We need to go to each textbox one by one and select and copy, that is not convenient.

    Thanks.

    You've asked the same question in the Word section. So I am assuming this is for PowerPoint. Yes, that can be done. But you have to be more precise as to what you want to do exactly.
    A dream is not something you see when you are asleep, but something you strive for when you are awake.

    It's usually a bad idea to say that something can't be done.

    The difference between dream and aim, is that one requires soundless sleep to see and the other requires sleepless efforts to achieve
