Steps

- Run the command below. Save to a new output path so the source remains available for comparison.
- Check the result as described below before using it in another job.

Notes and limits
Writing an Office document uses one credit per command. See the billing guide for the current rules.
The examples keep the original file. Add --force only when you intend to overwrite an existing output. Run jetformat ppt add-text --help to compare options with your installed version.
See the ppt command reference for the surrounding workflow.
