Description

Can you please suggest areas of the plugin code to focus on to add this feature out?

We have a strong requirement which requires an html table to be opened in powerpoint and would really appreciate a pointer on this.

Research direction
The plugin currently supports export to various formats like PDF and Word. Investigate the export functions in the plugin's source code, particularly how Excel and PDF exports are structured. Look into existing libraries such as PptxGenJS to create PPTX files. Start by adding a new export option similar to the existing ones, and test with an HTML table.
