Add native Rust PPTX conversion - #113
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe PR adds PPTX conversion to the Rust library and CLI, detects PPTX archives, adds PDF vector primitives, and extends benchmark tooling with PowerPoint reference generation. README and package metadata now document PPTX support. ChangesPPTX conversion support
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to PPTX conversion and benchmark support are added, but a failed PowerPoint reference export can leave a partial PDF that later benchmark runs treat as valid, potentially producing misleading visual-comparison results. Address the failed-export cleanup before relying on generated references. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

🟡 Changes recommended
There are confirmed PPTX rendering correctness issues (hidden elements not skipped, diagram relationship selection ambiguity, ellipse outline handling) that can lead to visibly wrong output.
Once you've addressed the issues Copilot identified, you can request another Copilot review.
Pull request overview
Adds native PPTX parsing and PDF rendering support to the Rust MiniPdf engine and wires it into the Rust CLI and benchmark tooling, expanding the Rust implementation beyond XLSX/DOCX.
Changes:
- Implement PPTX package parsing + slide rendering pipeline in Rust (
pptx.rs), including shapes, connectors, images/SVG, tables, groups, placeholders/themes, and SmartArt drawing fallbacks. - Extend shared Rust PDF primitives to support PPTX-required vector operations (ellipse, arbitrary paths, configurable dash patterns, and non-
'staticpreferred fonts). - Integrate PPTX into Rust benchmark scripts and update Rust-facing documentation/metadata to advertise PPTX support.

Remove incomplete PDFs after a failed conversion.
If presentation.SaveAs creates pdf_path and then raises, this handler leaves the incomplete file in place. The skip check at Line 55 then skips that file on the next default run. Remove the output in this handler, or save to a temporary PDF and rename it only after SaveAs succeeds.
