I am working on a project where I need to extract freeform shapes from a PowerPoint (PPTX) file and then plot them using Python. I have already explored various libraries, such as python-pptx for reading PPTX files, but I'm struggling to extract freeform shapes specifically.
I done me search and found this: How to extract FREEFORM shapes from ppt and save it in png file using pptx but that isn't enough.
I managed to solve it by converting to html using aspose but I don't want to use online services.
I am searching for services-free solution. I'm willing to switch / add another programming language
