Question about PowerPoint Importation in SEN

[emmanuel_j]

Hi all,

I know that Tools/Import allows to convert a PowerPoint file as a Book.

Nevertheless, when I use this option, each slide is imported as static image, which is non-editable.

Is there a way to import PowerPoint slides as editable book pages ?

Hi, emmanuel_j

Yes, there is a script that converts MS Powerpoint to the SAP Enable Now Book/Slides. However, this script is not a part of the SAP Enable Now product and is usually used by SAP Enable Now consultants only.

If you are interested and want to try it, please feel free to download it from here and then import into the Producer.

I have imported the script to the producer. Can you please tell me what are the next steps?

[Anton_Mavrin · Accepted solution]

Mani, you are not Emmanuel Josipowicz 🙂

Anyway, click Tools, and there you'll find a new menu entry: Import a PPTX file

Is it possible to share the script once more? We are trying to create new training contend in SEN and we have the part of the contend in Powerpoint.

If you use this script, be prepared to do some up-front prep work (like removing all boilerplate content) and a fair amount of tidy up on the back-end, and then accept that maintenance is going to be more effort (vs. content created directly in SAP Enable Now). Personally I will just copy/paste content from PowerPoint into Book Pages - it's usually faster and requires less effort.
