Hi,
In my ASP.NET application I need to generate powerpoint presentations
containg complex shapes and connectors in each slides. At first I tried with
Aspose. But due to its limitations I searched for other APIs. And finally I
found Microsoft PowerPoint Object Library 12.0 as the most usefull component
which have all the functionalities I need.
My questions:
1. Is it possible to deploy Microsoft PowerPoint Object Library 12.0 in
ASP.NET server where Office is not installed?
2. If so then how?

In order to automate PowerPoint, PowerPoint must be installed.
That is, you can deploy the file that includes the type library for PowerPoint,
but without PowerPoint itself, it won't do you any good.

In theory, it's possible to create and manipulate PPT 12 (but not earlier
versions) files by working with the XML and other files inside the PPTX file.
