Clicking on "display" -> "slide master view" in PPT renders the text accessible.

For now, my kludge is to deformat the PPT and produce a texte file using some other software, but I'm not sure I've got all the text.... See more

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get rid of the mask? ▲ Collapse
