A client provided a PowerPoint document with embedded Excel file
and somehow asked to exclude embed content from translation.

SDL Studio 2019 is supposed to provide this function
but I did not find successful case on the web. (MemoQ did, but only error report for SDL Trados)

The same client often sends Do-not-translate-this-page instruction within a same file,
and I am also looking for ways to do this easily.


Any help is greatly

Try this: May 24, 2019

To not process excel content in PowerPoint Slides:

In Home > Project Settings > File Types > ...PowerPoint [select the correct filter] > Common:
Uncheck the option "Embedded Excel Charts and sheets"


To not process a specific PowerPoint slide:

Open the deck in PowerPoint.
Hide the slide that you don't want to process.
