Plus, I would like the worship leader/pastor to be able to adjust things in Keynote if necessary - if it comes from a PDF, that won't be possible.
#IMPORT PDF TO KEYNOTE HOW TO#
I know how to use LaTeX to generate PDFs from the data (I currently only do it for printed chordsheets, but I'm sure I could figure out how to do slide-style layouts), but Keynote apparently only imports one page of a PDF at a time - a typical Sunday worship set would be around 30-50 slides, so that would be pretty annoying.
Not only should I not be in the loop every week, but there are some line spacing problems in the conversion. I'd like a process that doesn't involve me creating a Powerpoint file for them to convert to Keynote. So I'm looking for suggestions on how to approach this. Apple clearly doesn't want anything except Keynote creating or editing Keynote presentations. Old versions of Keynote internally stored slide data in XML ( ), but newer Keynote versions use progressively more opaque formats ( ).
#IMPORT PDF TO KEYNOTE CODE#
But just as I finished the code to output tabbed text, I found out that when they say "Powerpoint" they really mean Keynote, which has no ability to use plain text files. They always talked about slides for Powerpoint, so I assumed that's what they were using. Tanigawa no nagare o shitau shika no yoo niĪnata koso waga tate, anata koso waga chikaraĪnata koso waga nozomi, ware wa shu o aoguīut my church's pastor (whose computer is used for the projection) and the two other worship leaders besides me who select songs all use Macs. Here is a small sample of the text file structure that works in Powerpoint (with one slide in Japanese with romanization in smaller font by utilizing the next level of outline): As the Deer So my module currently outputs such a text file, and the presenter would open a Powerpoint template styled the way they want for song presentation, insert the text file as an "outline" for new slides, and voila. I initially thought all my users were using Powerpoint, which can import a simple text file with each line preceded by 0-5 tabs (0-tab line becomes the title of a new slide, and one or more tabs means a "bullet point" with the level corresponding to how many tabs). I wrote a database web app for handling church worship songs, and I'm trying to add a module to output selected songs for projecting the lyrics.
