Why to Convert XSLFO to PPS?
XSLFO (XSL Formatting Objects) is a markup language for XML documents that is used to define the layout of a document. It is used to define the page layout, font, margins, and other formatting information. PPS (PowerPoint Show) is a file format used by Microsoft PowerPoint to store presentations. It is a self-running presentation that can be opened without PowerPoint. Converting XSLFO to PPS allows users to view the presentation without the need for PowerPoint.
