requires separation of the text frame from its parent shape are unlikely to be
supported.

equations in the new native PowerPoint 2013 format (i.e., not Equation Editor

10. ~~Accurate alignment of shapes in a group. This is hardly obtainable, as it
depends on PowerPoint's copy&paste behavior. In the affected cases the same
issue can be experienced with a manual copy&paste operation.~~

9. Rasterized shape scaling. Indeed, PowerPoint applies effects to rasterized
versions of the shapes, thus proportionally scaling all their elements (e.g.,
shape borders). Instead, PPspliT resizes the native shape, thus preserving its
components (e.g., border thickness). The result is better because there is no
_pixelize_ effect, but it may be a little different from expected. This
difference is enhanced for the case of font scaling for grow/shrinking emphasis
effects: PPspliT renders this by changing font size by an amount that is a good
compromise between horizontal and vertical growth/shrink.
12. ~~Accurate processing of emphasis effects affecting fill/line colors. For
reasons which I haven't been able to figure out, sometimes color change
settings in effects that are still to be processed get corrupted before
reaching these effects, causing a failure to apply the intended color.~~
13. ~~Handling the auto-fit property for text frames, due to some limits in the
interface that PowerPoint offers for this property (in PPT<2007 it is
totally absent, while in PPT 2007 it seems to work fairly well).~~

partially supported. In fact, these shapes are turned into placeholders
