Debug

Known issues

breakingIn version 2.x, the API changed from the 1.x CLI-only approach. The function `convert` is now the primary interface.

fix

Use `pptx2md.convert('input.pptx', 'output.md')` instead of calling the script directly.

affects: >=2.0.0

gotchaImages are not extracted by default; you must specify `--images` or the `extract_images=True` parameter to save images.

fix

Add `extract_images=True` when calling `convert`, or pass `--images` in CLI.

affects: all

gotchaThe library requires Python 3.10 or newer. Using older Python versions will cause import errors.

fix

Ensure your environment uses Python >=3.10.

affects: >=2.0.0
