This article demonstrates how to replace text in an exising PowerPoint document with new text using Spire.Presentation for Java.
import com.spire.presentation.*;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
public class ReplaceText {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
//create a Presentation object
Presentation presentation = new Presentation();
//load the template file
presentation.loadFromFile("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\input.pptx");
//get the first slide
ISlide slide= presentation.getSlides().get(0);
//create a Map object
Map map = new HashMap();
//add several pairs of keys and values to the map
map.put("#name#","John Smith");
map.put("#age#","28");
map.put("#address#","Oklahoma City, United States");
map.put("#tel#","333 123456");
map.put("#email#","johnsmith@outlook.com");
//replace text in the slide
replaceText(slide,map);
//save to another file
presentation.saveToFile("output/ReplaceText.pptx", FileFormat.PPTX_2013);
}
/**
* Replace text within a slide
* @param slide Specifies the slide where the replacement happens
* @param map Where keys are existing strings in the document and values are the new strings to replace the old ones
*/
public static void replaceText(ISlide slide, Map<String,String> map) {
for (Object shape : slide.getShapes()
) {
if (shape instanceof IAutoShape) {
for (Object paragraph : ((IAutoShape) shape).getTextFrame().getParagraphs()
) {
ParagraphEx paragraphEx = (ParagraphEx)paragraph;
for (String key : map.keySet()
) {
if (paragraphEx.getText().contains(key)) {
paragraphEx.setText(paragraphEx.getText().replace(key, map.get(key)));

With the help of Spire.Presentation for .NET, we could set 3D effect to the shapes and text in the PowerPoint document to make it attractive. We have already demonstrated how to use Spire.Presentation to set 3D format for shapes. In this article, I will introduce how to create three dimensional effects text in PowerPoint in C#.
using Spire.Presentation;
using Spire.Presentation.Drawing;
using System.Drawing;
namespace 3DEffectForText
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
//Create a new presentation object
Presentation presentation = new Presentation();
//Get the first slide
ISlide slide = presentation.Slides[0];
//Append a new shape to slide and set the line color and fill type
IAutoShape shape = slide.Shapes.AppendShape(ShapeType.Rectangle, new RectangleF(30, 40, 600, 200));
shape.ShapeStyle.LineColor.Color = Color.White;
shape.Fill.FillType = Spire.Presentation.Drawing.FillFormatType.None;
//Add text to the shape
shape.AppendTextFrame("This demo shows how to add 3D effect text to Presentation slide");
//set the color of text in shape
TextRange textRange = shape.TextFrame.TextRange;
textRange.Fill.FillType = Spire.Presentation.Drawing.FillFormatType.Solid;
textRange.Fill.SolidColor.Color = Color.Green;
//set the Font of text in shape
textRange.FontHeight = 30;
textRange.LatinFont = new TextFont("Gulim");
//Set 3D effect for text
shape.TextFrame.TextThreeD.ShapeThreeD.PresetMaterial = PresetMaterialType.Matte;
shape.TextFrame.TextThreeD.LightRig.PresetType = PresetLightRigType.Sunrise;
shape.TextFrame.TextThreeD.ShapeThreeD.TopBevel.PresetType = BevelPresetType.Circle;
shape.TextFrame.TextThreeD.ShapeThreeD.ContourColor.Color = Color.Green;
shape.TextFrame.TextThreeD.ShapeThreeD.ContourWidth = 3;
//Save the document to file.
presentation.SaveToFile("3DEffectForText_result.pptx", FileFormat.Pptx2010);
}
}
}

Set and Get Alternative Text (Alt Text) of PowerPoint Shapes in Java
2019-09-03 08:58:44 Written by AdministratorAlternative text (Alt Text) can help people with vision or cognitive impairments understand shapes, pictures or other graphical content. This article demonstrates how to set and get the alternative text of a shape in a PowerPoint document using Spire.Presentation for Java.
Set alternative text
import com.spire.presentation.*;
import com.spire.presentation.drawing.FillFormatType;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.geom.Rectangle2D;
public class SetAltText {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
//instantiate a Presentation object
Presentation ppt = new Presentation();
//add a shape to the first slide
IAutoShape shape = ppt.getSlides().get(0).getShapes().appendShape(ShapeType.TRIANGLE, new Rectangle2D.Double(115, 130, 100, 100));
shape.getFill().setFillType(FillFormatType.SOLID);
shape.getFill().getSolidColor().setColor(Color.orange);
shape.getShapeStyle().getLineColor().setColor(Color.white);
//set alt text (title and description) for the shape
shape.setAlternativeTitle("Triangle");
shape.setAlternativeText("This is a triangle.");
//save the resultant document
ppt.saveToFile("Output.pptx", FileFormat.PPTX_2013);
}
}

Get alternative text
import com.spire.presentation.*;
public class GetAltText {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
//load PowerPoint document
Presentation ppt = new Presentation();
ppt.loadFromFile("Output.pptx");
//get the first shape in the first slide
IShape shape = ppt.getSlides().get(0).getShapes().get(0);
//get the alt text (title and description) of the shape
String altTitle = shape.getAlternativeTitle();
String altDescription = shape.getAlternativeText();
System.out.println("Title: " + altTitle);
System.out.println("Description: " + altDescription);
}
}
