File formats, methods, and computer program products are provided for representing a presentation in a modular content framework. The modular content framework may include a file format container associated with modular parts. A file format includes logically separate modular parts that are associated with each other by one or more relationships where each modular part is associated with a relationship type. The modular parts include a presentation part representing a start part for the presentation, a slide master part associated with the presentation part, and a slide layout part associated with the slide master part. The modular parts may also include a document properties part containing built-in properties associated with the file format, a thumbnail part containing associated thumbnails, and a slide part containing a slide in the presentation. Each modular part is capable of being interrogated separately, extracted from the presentation, and/or reused in a different presentation.
A file format for representing at least one of a presentation and a presentation template, the file format representing at least one of the presentation and the presentation template in a modular content framework implemented within a computing apparatus, the file format comprising:
A method for representing a presentation in a file format wherein modular parts associated with the presentation include each part written into the file format, the method comprising:
A computer program product comprising a computer-readable medium having control logic stored therein for causing a computer to represent a presentation in a file format wherein modular parts of the file format include each part written into the file format, the control logic comprising computer-readable program code for causing the computer to:
