+# PowerPoint_to_sketch
+Create an Arduino Sketch from a VB macro in a PowerPoint presentation.
+
+This PowerPoint presentation and the included VB macro is based on the work by [Kris Kasprzak here](https://github.com/KrisKasprzak/Powerpoint-ILI9341_t3).
+
+The original VB macro created by Kris is part of the presentation, it has been expanded and enhanced with extra capabilities.
+
+The example presentation creates an Arduino sketch that renders on a 480x320 TFT screen. This uses the fonts provided in the TFT_eSPI_ext library by Frank Boesing. Frank's library can be [downloaded here](https://github.com/FrankBoesing/TFT_eSPI_ext).
