Native PowerPoint Doc Editor opens, searches, and edits .docx and .pptx files directly inside your Obsidian vault without converting them to Markdown. It is insane to think there was no well built functionality for this. This plugin was partly made with spite.

Network

The plugin is designed to work offline inside your vault. It has no telemetry, analytics, advertising, accounts, or self-updating code. Normal editing, search, save, and export do not upload vault contents.

Network access can occur only when you open an external link, activate a hyperlink stored in a document, or export a DOCX whose images reference remote URLs. Obsidian, your operating system, or the browser handles those requests.

Local data may include an optional DOCX search index, recovery copies, normal Obsidian plugin settings, and a developer debug log when a .hotreload marker exists. Import font and Insert image use a system file picker; Copy debug log writes only to the clipboard.

See docs/privacy-policy.md and docs/terms-of-service.md.

About

Search inside Word docs and PowerPoint decks, edit slide text, tables, charts and shapes for supported decks, export or duplicate files, and detect save conflicts or hidden text.
