Before Building:
CRITICAL: You MUST create ONE slide at a time and get user approval before proceeding to the next slide.
For EACH slide:
soffice --headless --convert-to pdf presentation.pptx
pdftoppm -jpeg -r 150 -f 1 -l 1 presentation.pdf slide
YOU MUST CHECK FOR THESE SPECIFIC ISSUES ON EVERY PAGE:
The #1 goal is MAXIMUM information density. A busy executive should understand the entire company story in 30 seconds. Fill every quadrant to capacity.
Per quadrant targets:
Information packing techniques:
If a quadrant looks sparse, add more:
Line spacing - use single textbox per section:
def add_section(slide, x, y, w, header_text, bullets, header_size=10, bullet_size=8):
"""Header + bullets in single textbox with natural spacing"""
tb = slide.shapes.add_textbox(x, y, w, Inches(len(bullets) * 0.18 + 0.3))
tf = tb.text_frame
tf.word_wrap = True
# Header paragraph
p = tf.paragraphs[0]
p.text = header_text
p.font.bold = True
p.font.size = Pt(header_size)
p.font.color.rgb = RGBColor(0, 51, 102)
p.space_after = Pt(6) # Small gap after header
# Bullet paragraphs
for bullet in bullets:
p = tf.add_paragraph()
p.text = bullet
p.font.size = Pt(bullet_size)
p.space_after = Pt(3)
return tb
Key spacing principles:
space_after = Pt(6) after header, Pt(3) between bullets3-4 dense slides - use quadrants, columns, tables, charts
Bullets for ALL body text - NEVER paragraphs. Use ONE textbox per section with all bullets inside - do NOT create separate textboxes for each bullet point. Use PptxGenJS bullet formatting:
// CORRECT: Single textbox with bullet list - each array item becomes a bullet
// Position in top-left quadrant (Company Overview) - after header with accent bar
slide.addText(
[
{ text: 'Headquarters: Austin, Texas; Founded 2003', options: { bullet: { indent: 10 }, breakLine: true } },
{ text: 'Employees: 140,000+ globally across 6 continents', options: { bullet: { indent: 10 }, breakLine: true } },
{ text: 'CEO: Elon Musk; CFO: Vaibhav Taneja', options: { bullet: { indent: 10 }, breakLine: true } },
{ text: 'Market Cap: $850B (#6 globally by market cap)', options: { bullet: { indent: 10 }, breakLine: true } },
{ text: 'Segments: Automotive (85%), Energy (10%), Services (5%)', options: { bullet: { indent: 10 } } }
],
{ x: 0.45, y: 0.95, w: 4.5, h: 2.6, fontSize: 11, fontFace: 'Arial', valign: 'top', paraSpaceAfter: 6 }
);
// WRONG: Multiple separate textboxes for each bullet - causes alignment issues
// slide.addText('Headquarters: Austin', { x: 0.5, y: 1.0, bullet: true });
Bullet formatting tips:
bullet: { indent: 10 } - controls bullet indentation (smaller = tighter)paraSpaceAfter: 6 - space after each paragraph in pointsTitle case for titles (not ALL CAPS), left-aligned
Consistent fonts everywhere including tables
Company's brand colors - YOU MUST research actual brand colors via web search before creating slides. Do not guess or assume colors.
Follow brand guidelines if provided
See examples/Nike_Strip_Profile_Example.pptx for layout inspiration. Adapt colors to each company's brand.
Must pass "30-second comprehension test" for a busy executive.
Use 4:3 aspect ratio (standard IB pitch book format):
const pptx = new pptxgen();
pptx.layout = 'LAYOUT_4x3'; // 10" wide × 7.5" tall - MUST USE THIS
PptxGenJS uses inches. 4:3 slide = 10" wide × 7.5" tall.

Company Name (Ticker) - Example: Tesla, Inc. (TSLA)
slide.addText('Tesla, Inc. (TSLA)', { x: 0.3, y: 0.2, w: 9.4, h: 0.35, fontSize: 18, bold: true });
| Quadrant | Position | Content |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | x=0.3, y=0.6, w=4.7, h=3.0 | Company Overview: HQ, founded, key stats, business summary (4-5 bullets) |
| 2 | x=5.0, y=0.6, w=4.7, h=3.0 | Business & Positioning: revenue drivers, products/services, competitive position, growth drivers (4-5 bullets) |
| 3 | x=0.3, y=3.7, w=4.7, h=3.5 | Key Financials: Revenue, EBITDA, margins, EPS, FCF + Valuation (Mkt Cap, EV, multiples) — table OR chart, not both |
| 4 | x=5.0, y=3.7, w=4.7, h=3.5 | For public companies: 1Y stock price chart + top shareholders. For private: Recent developments or Ownership/M&A history |
| Element | Size | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Slide title | 24pt | Bold, company brand color |
| Quadrant headers | 14pt | Bold, with accent bar |
| Body/bullet text | 11pt | Regular weight |
| Table text | 10pt | Use 9pt for dense tables |
| Chart labels | 9pt | Keep labels short |
| Source/footer | 8pt | Bottom of slide |
CRITICAL: If text overflows, REDUCE font size by 1pt and re-render.
Each quadrant header MUST have a colored accent bar to the left:
// Add accent bar for quadrant header
slide.addShape(pptx.shapes.RECTANGLE, {
x: 0.3, y: 0.6, w: 0.08, h: 0.25,
fill: { color: 'E31937' } // Use company brand color
});
slide.addText('Company Overview', {
x: 0.45, y: 0.6, w: 4.5, h: 0.3, fontSize: 14, bold: true, fontFace: 'Arial'
});
Visual elements to include:
For multi-slide profiles: Include 2-3 actual PptxGenJS charts. Never use placeholder divs or static images.
For single-slide profiles: Use tables for financials (more space-efficient). Only add a chart if it replaces the table, not in addition to it.
| Data Type | Chart Type |
|---|---|
| Revenue trends | Line or column (multi-year) |
| Geographic breakdown | Horizontal bar |
| Product mix | Pie with percentages |
| Financial comparison | Column |
| Stock price (1Y daily) | Line |
Horizontal Bar (fits in bottom-right quadrant for 4:3 slide):
slide.addChart(pptx.charts.BAR, [{
name: 'FY2024 Revenue by Region',
labels: ['North America', 'EMEA', 'China', 'APLA'],
values: [21.4, 13.6, 7.6, 6.7]

});
Pie Chart (fits in bottom-right quadrant for 4:3 slide):
slide.addChart(pptx.charts.PIE, [{

dataLabelFontSize: 11, catAxisLabelFontSize: 11, valAxisLabelFontSize: 11,

Always use native PptxGenJS tables or charts - NEVER plain text prose or HTML tables.
Use slide.addTable() for financial data (fits in bottom-left quadrant for 4:3 slide):
// Add header with accent bar first
slide.addShape(pptx.shapes.RECTANGLE, {
x: 0.3, y: 3.7, w: 0.08, h: 0.25, fill: { color: 'E31937' }
});
slide.addText('Key Financials & Valuation', {
x: 0.45, y: 3.7, w: 4.5, h: 0.3, fontSize: 14, bold: true, fontFace: 'Arial'
});
// Financial data table
slide.addTable([
[{ text: 'Metric', options: { bold: true, fill: '003366', color: 'FFFFFF' } },
{ text: 'FY24', options: { bold: true, fill: '003366', color: 'FFFFFF' } },

['Revenue', '$51.4B', '$54.2B'],

['EBITDA Margin', '17.3%', '17.5%'],
['EPS', '$3.42', '$3.75'],
['Market Cap', '$185B', '—'],
['EV/EBITDA', '12.5x', '11.7x']
], {
x: 0.45, y: 4.1, w: 4.3, h: 3.0, // Below header in bottom-left quadrant
fontFace: 'Arial', fontSize: 10,
border: { pt: 0.5, color: 'CCCCCC' },
valign: 'middle',
colW: [1.8, 1.25, 1.25] // Column widths
});
❌ Incorrect: Plain text like Note: FY2024 revenue growth +1.0%, Net Income $5.1B...
❌ Incorrect: HTML tables that don't convert properly to PowerPoint
For projections, use Bear/Base/Bull case scenarios in structured tables.
Note: Reference the PPTX skill for PowerPoint file creation.
