After pasting, a small "Paste Options" icon appears below the pasted text.



Click this icon and choose "Keep Source Formatting" :

Use Notepad++ with add-on NppExport.




  • Select the source code


  • Use Copy RTF to clipboard of NppExport


  • Paste into empty PPT slide (do not select any textfiled)

    With version 6.9.2 or higher it's working without NppExport plugin. Just make right-click on the selected text -> Plugin commands -> Copy Text with Syntax Highlighting.

Pygments can format almost every format to rtf:



pygmentize -f rtf -o code.rtf code.py

  1. Click on Insert → Object → OpenDocument Text

  2. Paste on opened panel

  3. Click outside.


Note: Copying from Notepad++ will preserve colors and styling.

Online syntax highlighter like TextMate seems good as well, http://markup.su/highlighter/



But after pasting into PowerPoint presentation new lines and line spacing is lost, so we can take a screen shot of the preview and paste it in our PowerPoint presentation

  • Pasting into ppt does not quite work here on Windows 10: The new lines are not pasted.

Pasting from Eclipse should retain formatting if the app supports it. I know Word does... not sure about PPT.

    Works from Eclipse Juno to Word 2010, but not to Powerpoint 2010 - it loses the colours and converts some of them to bold text

I've had no success pasting into Powerpoint 2010 on Windows.



However, pasting from Eclipse into Word 2010 works.



You can then save this formatted text as an RTF file, then embed the RTF into a Powerpoint 2010 slide using Insert Object (and optionally select 'link' so you can edit and update the text in Word).

    Using Notepad++ and Npp Export works great, but your text will end up with a white background.



    To remove it, paste first the text in word with the "preserve source formatting" option. Then, select the text and in Home > Font, remove the background with the Text Highlight Color option.



    Then, copy again the text from word, and paste it in powerpoint with the "preserve source formatting" option.

      Copy the code and first paste that code into Microsoft word



      enter image description here



      Then do the formatting if necessary and then copy from word and paste back to powerpoint by right clicking and choosing use destination theme



      enter image description here

      • Either way,  what does “Then do the formatting if necessary” mean?

      • It means if you want to do some changes of your own like aligning or indentation of code

      Pasting from Eclipse should retain formatting if the app supports it. I know Word does... not sure about PPT.

      I've had no success pasting into Powerpoint 2010 on Windows.



      However, pasting from Eclipse into Word 2010 works.



      You can then save this formatted text as an RTF file, then embed the RTF into a Powerpoint 2010 slide using Insert Object (and optionally select 'link' so you can edit and update the text in Word).

              Using Notepad++ and Npp Export works great, but your text will end up with a white background.



              To remove it, paste first the text in word with the "preserve source formatting" option. Then, select the text and in Home > Font, remove the background with the Text Highlight Color option.



              Then, copy again the text from word, and paste it in powerpoint with the "preserve source formatting" option.
