In officer: Manipulation of Microsoft Word and PowerPoint Documents

#' @export
#' @title Create a 'PowerPoint' document object
#' @description Read and import a pptx file as an R object
#' representing the document.
#'
#' The function is called `read_pptx` because it allows you to initialize an
#' object of class `rpptx` from an existing PowerPoint file. Content will be
#' added to the existing presentation. By default, an empty document is used.
#'
#' @param path path to the pptx file to use as base document. `potx` file are supported.
#' @section master layouts and slide layouts:
#' `read_pptx()` uses a PowerPoint file as the initial document. This is the original
#' PowerPoint document where all slide layouts, placeholders for shapes and
#' styles come from. Major points to be aware of are:
#'
#'   * Slide layouts are relative to a master layout. A document can contain one or
#' more master layouts; a master layout can contain one or more slide layouts.
#' * A slide layout inherits design properties from its master layout but some
#' properties can be overwritten.
#' * Designs and formatting properties of layouts and shapes (placeholders in a
#'                                                            layout) are defined within the initial document. There is no R function to
#' modify these values - they must be defined in the initial document.
