Frequently asked questions

AI-generated answers based on this skill's SKILL.md and metadata

How do I make presentation slides from my research paper?

Paper Slides converts your research paper into conference presentation slides in both Beamer LaTeX and editable PPTX formats. Upload your paper (PDF or LaTeX source), specify your talk type (oral, spotlight, or poster), target venue (NeurIPS, ICML, CVPR, etc.), and desired duration. Paper Slides automatically structures your content with appropriate pacing, extracts key figures, and generates speaker notes for each slide.

Can Paper Slides generate Beamer slides and PowerPoint from my paper?

Yes. Paper Slides outputs both Beamer LaTeX and editable PPTX presentations from your research paper. This dual-format approach lets you use Beamer for PDF generation with fine-tuned LaTeX control, or edit the PowerPoint directly for venue-specific styling and last-minute adjustments before your conference talk.

Does Paper Slides include speaker notes and talk scripts?

Paper Slides generates comprehensive speaker notes for every slide and can produce a full talk script tailored to your presentation duration. For timed oral or spotlight talks, it creates a complete script with natural pacing, key talking points, and optional Q&A responses to help you deliver a polished conference presentation.

What talk formats and venues does Paper Slides support?

Paper Slides adapts to multiple talk types—oral presentations (15–45 minutes), spotlight talks, poster lightning talks (3–5 minutes), and invited talks—across major venues including NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, and CVPR. Specify your format and venue to get venue-specific styling, appropriate slide counts, and content depth matched to your conference's standards.

Can I customize the presentation outline and slide structure?

Paper Slides automatically generates a presentation outline and slide deck tailored to your talk duration and format. You receive an editable structure with suggested content flow, key figures from your paper, and speaker notes. The PPTX output is fully editable, so you can refine the outline, adjust slide order, and add custom styling before presenting.

What input formats does Paper Slides accept for my research paper?

Paper Slides accepts research papers as PDF files or LaTeX source directories. Whether you provide a compiled PDF or raw LaTeX source, Paper Slides extracts text, figures, and structure to build your presentation. This flexibility lets you work from published PDFs or your original LaTeX project files.

Paper Slides: From Paper to Conference Talk

Generate conference presentation slides from: $ARGUMENTS

Context

This skill runs after Workflow 3 (/paper-writing). It takes a compiled paper and generates a presentation slide deck for conference oral talks, spotlight presentations, or poster lightning talks.

Unlike posters (single page, visual-first), slides tell a temporal story: each slide builds on the previous one, with progressive revelation of the research narrative. A good talk makes the audience understand why this matters before showing what was done.

Constants

  • VENUE = NeurIPS — Target venue, determines color scheme.
