[Java] Customize and Apply Slide Masters in PowerPoint

PowerPoint slide master is a generic template which stores the information about theme, layouts, fonts, title and background image of a presentation. In addition, the slide master can be inherited by other slides, which makes the unifying of the presentation format easier. This article will demonstrate how to customize the slide masters in a PowerPoint file and apply them to different slides by using Free Spire.Presentation for Java.

Installation
Method 1: Download the Free Spire.Presentation for Java and unzip it.Then add the Spire.Presentation.jar file to your project as dependency.

Method 2: You can also add the jar dependency to maven project by adding the following configurations to the pom.xml.
