How Microsoft PowerPoint writes PDFs
- • Each slide becomes one page.
- • Text boxes are placed independently.
- • Theme fonts are embedded as subsets.
What that means when you edit a reference
- • Each text box on a slide is edited on its own and keeps its alignment. Charts keep their shapes; only their text labels change.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Hanging indents are kept when the entry rewraps.
- • Italic journal names stay italic.
Questions people ask
+Can I fix a paper after exporting from LaTeX?
Yes, for small fixes. For big changes, recompile the source.
+Is it better to edit in Microsoft PowerPoint?
If you have the original Microsoft PowerPoint file and a lot to change, yes. For quick changes to the PDF itself, editing the PDF is faster and keeps it exactly as sent.
