You created your visualization in Microsoft Excel and would like to embed this graphic in a PowerPoint document.

Prerequisite 1

  • Excel workbook is open

  • PowerPoint document in which the graphic should be inserted is also open.

Prerequisite 2

  • The embedding works from the Excel web application to the PowerPoint web application as well as from the Excel desktop application to the PowerPoint desktop application.

  • Embedding between Excel desktop application and PowerPoint web application and vice versa is not possible.

Proceed as follows:

  1. Create the graphomate visual and keep the name of the visual in mind. The name of the visual is highlighted orange in the example.

  2. In the PowerPoint document, add the corresponding graphomate add-in. Select the "Insert" tab in the ribbon and go to the "Add-ins" area.
    In the Office Add-ins dialog switch to the "Admin Managed" tab. Here you will find the graphomate add-ins. Select the desired component and confirm with "Add".

  3. The graphomate add-in will be inserted in your document and a placeholder for the graphomate extensions appears. Then click on the icon at the top of the visual (Select remote component as a source) to link the graphic from the Excel workbook.

  4. By referring to the specific name (ID), you can select the corresponding graphic. You will also find the name of the graphic in the Excel workbook.
