A slide’s notes are in a part of their own, usually
ppt/notesSlides/notesSlideN.xml, reached through the slide’s
notesSlide relationship. The root element is p:notes, and its
layout is the same as a slide’s.
What a notes page holds
| Placeholder type | Holds |
|---|---|
sldImg | An image of the slide. |
body | The speaker notes text. |
sldNum, dt, hdr, ftr | Page number, date, header and footer. |
The notes text is in the a:p paragraphs of the body placeholder, as on a
slide.
The notes master
Notes slides are based on the notes master, p:notesMaster, listed in
p:notesMasterIdLst in presentation.xml. A presentation has at
most one.
