Every known shortfall, one entry each, ranked by how much it stops someone who presents with
PowerPoint from switching. This is the work list: pick from the top. Numbers are summarized in
[target-app-parity.md](target-app-parity.md); the feature-by-feature scores are in
[parity-checklist.md](parity-checklist.md). Hours are Opus 5.5 agent wall-clock hours including
tests (calibration in [target-app-parity.md](target-app-parity.md#calibration-how-the-hours-were-derived)).
`B` marks a gap that blocks **beta**. None blocks **alpha**: all six core workflows pass the
[alpha gate](roadmap.md#alpha-gate-powerpoints-core-workflows).

When a gap closes, delete its entry, update the parity doc it points to, and add a line to the
revision history.

## Stability

### Close discards an edited presentation without asking (#60)
- **Evidence:** issue #60; quitting prompts, `file.close` doesn't. PR #75 is open.
- **Impact:** silent data loss on a common path. The worst kind of bug for a presentation app.
- **Estimate:** 0.5–1 h (land and test #75). **Beta blocker.**

### Startup crashes on some Windows GPUs (#40, #59)
- **Evidence:** #59 (Intel UHD, access violation in `igvk64.dll` during Vulkan enumeration), #40
  (WordCraft, GridCraft and DeckCraft all fail on one Windows 11 PC). The DX12 default (#16) fixed
  AMD's `atio6axx.dll` crash only.
- **Impact:** the app never opens for those users.
- **Estimate:** 4–8 h (backend probing outside the process or a safe-mode fallback, a software
  renderer path). Needs a tester with the hardware. **Beta blocker.**

### Soak testing is engine-only
- **Evidence:** `crates/engine/src/soak_tests.rs` runs seeded random command sequences over a
  ~100-slide deck (validity, selection, undo/redo exactness, bounded undo, save/reopen in both
  formats every 100 steps); `DECKCRAFT_SOAK_STEPS` runs it long. It found a chart `clamp` panic
  that blanked whole slides. Still missing: UI-level (kittest) soak, memory and timing budgets.
- **Impact:** long-session crash rate is now sampled in CI; slowdowns are not measured.
- **Estimate:** 2–4 h left.
### Soak testing is new
- **Evidence:** `crates/ui-egui/src/ui_soak_tests.rs` drives the whole window with seeded random
  clicks, drags, keys (plain, Ctrl, Shift), typing and scrolling over the sample deck, checking
  document validity, bounded undo/journal/thumbnail/texture caches, zero caught command and
  render panics (`Session::panics_caught`, `deckcraft_render::panics_caught`) and a mean frame
  under 250 ms; 4 × 3000-action runs are clean. Engine-level command soak: PR #502.
- **Impact:** long-session crash rate is sampled in CI; RSS is not measured directly.
- **Estimate:** 1–2 h (RSS sampling per platform).

## File formats

Detail in [file-format-parity.md](file-format-parity.md).

### PPTX corpus is only decks we author
- **Evidence:** `crates/pptx/tests/corpus.rs` builds decks in this repo and checks open → save →
  reopen (package parts and text): a talk with a table, chart, picture, link and comment, and a
  notes master with a header and footer. Saving used to replace that notes master with an empty
  one, so "Acme review" and "Do not circulate" disappeared; they are kept now. There is still no
  larger corpus and no reference render from PowerPoint.
### PPTX has never met a corpus of real decks
- **Evidence:** PPTX tests use decks DeckCraft generates. An owned check
  (`crates/pptx/tests/corpus_elements.rs`) now opens, saves and reopens comments, hyperlinks and
  actions, custom shows, grouped rotated objects, and placeholders that inherit position, geometry
  and text from the layout. That check found paragraph default run properties (`defRPr`, including
  a link) and action sounds (the sound itself, stop-previous, and a custom show's "Show and
  return") were dropped on save; they are kept now. Embedded fonts, comment threads (#70), media
  options (#74) and animation rewind (#77) are still open, and there is no corpus of decks from
  outside this repo. No reference renders from PowerPoint exist to compare against.
- **Evidence:** PPTX tests use decks DeckCraft generates. An owned check
  (`crates/pptx/tests/corpus_style.rs`) now opens, saves and reopens text effects (gradient, outline,
  shadow, glow, inner shadow, reflection and soft edge), autofit, columns, vertical and RTL text,
  tab stops, line spacing, theme effects, gradient and pattern fills, 3-D bevels and connectors.
  That check found a run's inner shadow, reflection and soft edge were dropped, and a bevel preset
  with no kept `sp3d` was not written back; both are kept now. Comment threads (#70), media options
  (#74), animation rewind (#77) and embedded fonts are still open, and there is no corpus of decks
  from outside this repo. No reference renders from PowerPoint exist to compare against.
- **Evidence:** every PPTX test (`crates/pptx/tests`, 30 tests, plus `corpus_media.rs`) uses decks
  DeckCraft generates; the 2026-10-07 alpha checklist already listed this as open. No reference
  renders from PowerPoint exist to compare against. `corpus_media.rs` opens, saves and reopens
  SmartArt and OLE kept as XML (no diagram or embedding parts; those stay with #203), audio and
  video bookmarks and trims, a section holding a hidden slide, slide-number and date fields, ink
  (saved as freeform lines), `.glb` 3-D models, and animation repeat, bounce end and triggers.
  Playback options (#74) and rewind (#77) are still lost.
- **Evidence:** every PPTX test (`crates/pptx/tests`, 30 tests) uses decks DeckCraft generates;
- **Evidence:** every PPTX test (`crates/pptx/tests`) uses decks DeckCraft generates;
  the 2026-10-07 alpha checklist already listed this as open. No reference renders from PowerPoint
  exist to compare against. `crates/pptx/tests/corpus_themes.rs` starts on PowerPoint-shaped XML:
  themes and two masters with their layouts, shadow/glow/soft-edge/reflection effects, and text
  and shape hyperlinks and actions (text Mouse Over actions were dropped; now kept).
  exist to compare against. `corpus_charts.rs` round-trips one owned slice (a combo chart with
  data labels and trendlines, a merged table with diagonal borders, text columns, autofit,
  vertical text and a WordArt warp). That is still a generated deck, not a corpus of real ones.
- **Evidence:** `crates/pptx/tests/corpus_kinds.rs` builds decks in this repo and checks open → save →
  reopen (package parts and text): tables, charts, animations, media, sections, and several masters
  and layouts. A handout master with a header, footer, date and slide number used to disappear on
  save; that text is kept now. There is still no larger corpus and no reference render from PowerPoint.
- **Impact:** the main reason to switch is "open my PowerPoint decks". Fidelity on real decks
  (corporate templates, SmartArt, `chartex` charts, embedded fonts, EMF) is still mostly unknown.
- **Estimate:** 20–35 h: grow the owned corpus in `storytold/photocraft-corpus` style (craftrules
  `standards/test-corpora.md`), add render checks, have the owner open outputs in PowerPoint, fix
  what breaks. **Beta blocker.**

### Round trip loses media playback options and animation rewind (#74, #77)
- **Evidence:** issues filed 2026-10-10 by an automated reviewer; media playback options and the
  animation rewind flag aren't written back. Comment threads left with #70: the writer now emits
  the `p188` modern part next to the legacy one.
- **Impact:** a deck opened and saved silently loses show behaviour.
- **Estimate:** 2–4 h. **Beta blocker.**

### SVG pictures don't render
- **Evidence:** `crates/render/src/images.rs` decodes through `image` 0.25 (PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF,
  TIFF, BMP), and EMF/WMF through `deckcraft-metafile` (ported from WordCraft: paths, fills, pens,
  pattern and hatch brushes, bitmaps and text; rectangle clip regions are applied, EMF+ only
  pictures play their EMF+ records).
  Nothing reads SVG; PowerPoint's Insert Icons stores SVG with a PNG fallback.
- **Impact:** SVG icons show only their raster fallback, and SVG files can't be inserted.
- **Estimate:** 4–8 h (an SVG renderer through `resvg`-style crates).

### Template, slide-show and macro variants are saved as plain `.pptx`
- **Evidence:** `crates/pptx/src/write/mod.rs` always writes the
  `presentationml.presentation.main+xml` content type; `.potx`/`.ppsx` open, `.pptm`/`.potm`/`.ppsm`
  aren't recognised.
- **Impact:** a template saved as `.potx` isn't a template to PowerPoint; macro decks can't be
  opened even to view.
- **Estimate:** 2–4 h (content types; keep `vbaProject.bin` untouched without running it).

### No legacy `.ppt`/`.pot`/`.pps` import
- **Evidence:** PowerPoint for Mac still opens and saves the 97–2003 binary formats
  (`CFBundleDocumentTypes`); DeckCraft doesn't read them.
- **Impact:** archives of older decks don't open.
- **Estimate:** 20–35 h (import only, from the public [MS-PPT] spec). Owner decision whether it's
  worth it.

### No OpenDocument `.odp`
- **Evidence:** PowerPoint opens and saves `.odp`.
- **Impact:** LibreOffice users and public-sector exchange.
- **Estimate:** 12–20 h (read and write the common subset).

### PDF export rasterizes slide artwork
- **Evidence:** `crates/pdf` places each slide as an image under a selectable text layer, links and
  bookmarks.
- **Impact:** large PDFs; blurry when zoomed or printed.
- **Estimate:** 5–8 h (vector paths, fills and text through the PDF writer). **Beta blocker.**

### No printing
- **Evidence:** checklist row "Print" is missing; PR #66 (browser print) is open.
- **Impact:** handouts and speaker notes are printed in many workplaces.
- **Estimate:** 5–8 h (print through the PDF path and each OS's print dialog). **Beta blocker.**

### No video or animated GIF export
- **Evidence:** checklist row missing; PowerPoint exports MP4/MOV and animated GIF.
- **Impact:** sharing a talk as a video is a common request.
- **Estimate:** 10–16 h (render the timeline frame by frame; an H.264 encoder is the hard part,
  FilmCraft has one to copy).

### Embedded MicroType Express font subsets aren't drawn
- **Evidence:** `p:embeddedFontLst` is read and written. A raw TrueType/OpenType face, or one inside an Embedded OpenType wrapper, is loaded and used to draw. A MicroType Express subset (`application/x-fontdata` with neither form) is kept and written back, and the text still uses a stand-in.
- **Impact:** decks that embed a MicroType subset reflow until that face is installed.
- **Estimate:** 3–5 h.

## Features

### Font weights beyond Regular, Bold and Italic (#69)
- **Evidence:** #69; the font database maps a family to four faces.
- **Impact:** Light, Medium and Semibold headings (common in modern templates) render wrong.
- **Estimate:** 3–5 h. **Beta blocker.**

### Image paste fails on Windows and Linux (#53)
- **Evidence:** #53 (v0.3.0, Fedora AppImage and Windows).
- **Impact:** copy-paste of screenshots is a core workflow.
- **Estimate:** 2–4 h. **Beta blocker.**

### Tab inside a text box ends text entry (#78)
- **Evidence:** #78.
- **Impact:** tab stops and indented lists can't be typed.
- **Estimate:** 1–2 h.

### Charts: data grid, elements and the newer chart types
- **Evidence:** checklist rows "Edit chart data" (P0, partial), "Chart elements" (partial), "Other
  chart types" (partial); `chartex` parts (waterfall, funnel, treemap, sunburst, histogram, Pareto,
  box & whisker) are read, drawn, inserted, edited and saved as `chartEx` (kept unchanged, else
  written from the model, with a plain chart fallback). Waterfalls float and total, funnels,
  treemaps (squarified, nested by level with group banners) and sunbursts (one ring per level)
  have their own layouts, histograms and Paretos bin their data (count, width or Scott's rule),
  and box & whisker charts use exclusive or inclusive quartiles with 1.5 IQR whiskers. Region maps are kept
  (their cached geography too, also through edits) and drawn as value-coloured tiles with a
  colour scale, since DeckCraft ships no map boundaries. Radar charts are drawn polar (filled
  or lines), stock charts as high-low lines with close dashes or up/down bars and saved as
  `c:stockChart`, and combo charts start as columns with a line. Trendlines round-trip
  (`corpus_charts.rs`) and are drawn: linear, exponential, logarithmic, polynomial, power and
  moving average, with forecast and the equation and R² label. A moving average is drawn with
  neither label. A combo chart's secondary value axis is read (`y2_*`,
  `Series.secondary_axis`) and is not written back when the chart is rebuilt.
- **Impact:** most business decks have charts; editing their data is routine.
- **Estimate:** 12–20 h. Data and elements are **beta blockers** (6–10 h).

### SmartArt editing is shallow
- **Evidence:** a SmartArt graphic keeps its outline (`Shape.diagram`) and has a Text Pane, Add
  Shape, Promote, Demote, Remove and layout switching (`crates/engine/src/cmd/smartart.rs`). On
  `.pptx` the outline is written as a real diagram (data, layout, quick style, colours and the
  cached drawing; `crates/pptx/src/dgm.rs`), and PowerPoint diagrams read their outline from the
  data model, so they get the Text Pane too. 15 layouts (bullet and block lists, five process, two cycle and
  a radial, hierarchy, two pyramids, two matrices), four SmartArt Styles and Change Colors
  (colourful or one accent). Still missing: DeckCraft's own layout definitions are simple (not yet
  checked in PowerPoint itself); PowerPoint has ~200 layouts, picture layouts and 3-D styles; editing an
  imported diagram's outline redraws it with DeckCraft's layout; a diagram with no cached drawing
  isn't drawn.
- **Impact:** a PowerPoint diagram edited in DeckCraft changes look.
- **Estimate:** 6–10 h.

### Animation Pane, effect count and preview
Animations ▸ Preview and the pane's Play All play the current slide's animations on the editor
canvas (Escape or a click stops them). Still open: the advanced timeline, starting from the
selected effect, and most of the effect gallery. Detail in
[animation-parity.md](animation-parity.md). 10–16 h; the pane's timeline is a **beta blocker**.

### Interactive decks: media-action links, audio-triggered effects and click boxes
- **Evidence:** the slide show plays click-triggered animations, keeps each slide's state across
  visits and ignores shapes an animation has hidden (`crates/anim/src/interact.rs`). Still open,
  found by running three classroom game decks (Jeopardy-style boards, hide-and-reveal, score
  counters): a click on a shape whose action is "play sound" (`ppaction://media`, 126 and 486
  shapes in two decks) does nothing; triggers that start on `onStopAudio` or `begin` conditions are
  not read as triggers; click boxes are the shape's bounding box (a hexagon's corners count) and do
  not follow a shape that a motion path has moved; the PPTX writer turns every "on click" after the
  first effect of a trigger into "after previous", so a trigger with several click steps saved from
  DeckCraft plays all of them at once.
- **Impact:** games built around sound effects on buttons, or around a button that counts up with
  repeated clicks, lose that part when they are saved from DeckCraft or played in it.
- **Estimate:** 4–8 h.

### Notes and Handout masters
- **Evidence:** View ▸ Handout Master and View ▸ Notes Master edit both masters (placeholders,
  background, a slides-per-page preview for handouts) and PPTX keeps them. Notes pages (view and
  PDF) place the slide and notes where the notes master does and print its header, date, footer
  and page number in their own fonts, sizes and colours; PDF handouts print the handout master's.
  Notes Master view previews the slide in its slide-image placeholder. PDF pages lay master text
  out with the text engine (wrapping, mixed formatting), and the Notes Page view draws the same
  layout. Left: the view draws it in the interface font (sizes, colours and weights kept).
- **Estimate:** done for beta.

### Edit points, text warp, 3-D
- **Evidence:** checklist rows "Edit points" (P1 missing), "Text warp transforms" (partial: all 40
  `prstTxWarp` presets render, their adjusts round-trip, and Shape Format ▸ Text Effects ▸
  Transform applies one with `format.textWarp`; still open are adjust handles, and arc/circle
  placement can differ from PowerPoint by 1–3 % of the path length), "Bevel and 3-D rotation"
  (partial: bevels, camera presets and rotations and face lighting render as approximations and
  `scene3d`/`sp3d` round-trip as raw XML; no extrusion or side faces, only the three-point rig, and
  no command or pane to apply 3-D).
- **Estimate:** 4–6 h (edit points), 1–2 h (warp adjust handles), 6–10 h (3-D extrusion,
- **Evidence:** checklist rows "Edit points" (P1 partial: Edit Points converts a shape to a freeform, vertices drag, Ctrl/Cmd-click adds or deletes; no point types or Bézier control handles), "Text warp transforms" (partial: all 40
- **Evidence:** checklist rows "Edit points" (P1 partial: Edit Points converts a shape to a freeform, vertices drag, Ctrl/Cmd-click adds or deletes, smooth/straight/corner points and Bézier handles; no Straight/Curved Segment or Open/Close Path), "Text warp transforms" (partial: all 40
  `prstTxWarp` presets render and their adjusts round-trip, but there is no Transform gallery or
  command to apply one, no adjust handles, and arc/circle placement can differ from PowerPoint by
  1–3 % of the path length), "Bevel and 3-D rotation" (partial: bevels, camera presets and rotations and face lighting
  render as approximations and `scene3d`/`sp3d` round-trip as raw XML; no extrusion or side faces,
  only the three-point rig, and no command or pane to apply 3-D).
- **Estimate:** 1 h (edit points: segment types, open/close path), 2–4 h (warp gallery, command and handles), 6–10 h (3-D extrusion,
  render as approximations and `scene3d`/`sp3d` round-trip as raw XML; extrusions draw their
  sides under turned cameras, each lit for its own normal; the preset light rigs, rig directions and
  materials shade bevels and sides approximately (fitted to PowerPoint for three-point/matte only); contours draw as a
  band round the face outline (not round the extruded silhouette); no command or pane to apply 3-D).
- **Estimate:** 4–6 h (edit points), 2–4 h (warp gallery, command and handles), 1–2 h (fitting the other rigs and materials
  to PowerPoint renders), plus the Format Shape page.
  `prstTxWarp` presets render, their adjusts round-trip, and a selected warp shows a yellow handle
  per adjust that dragging sets; still no Transform gallery or command to apply one, and arc/circle
  placement can differ from PowerPoint by 1–3 % of the path length), "Bevel and 3-D rotation"
  (partial: bevels, camera presets and rotations and face lighting render as approximations and
  `scene3d`/`sp3d` round-trip as raw XML; no extrusion or side faces, only the three-point rig, and
  no command or pane to apply 3-D).
- **Estimate:** 4–6 h (edit points), 1–2 h (Transform gallery and command), 6–10 h (3-D extrusion,
  rigs and materials, Format Shape page).

### Proofing: spelling, thesaurus, AutoCorrect
- **Evidence:** `review.spelling` checks a small built-in list of frequent misspellings
  (`crates/engine/src/cmd/review.rs`); no dictionaries, no thesaurus. AutoCorrect has PowerPoint's options (two initial capitals,
  sentence and day capitals, caps lock, fractions, an editable replace list); no AutoFormat of
  ordinals or automatic bulleted lists, no undo of a single correction.
- **Estimate:** 8–14 h (Hunspell-format dictionaries under an open licence per language).
- **Evidence:** `review.spelling` checks with Hunspell-format dictionaries the system already has
  (`crates/engine/src/spell.rs`: affixes, cross products, one level of continuation, compounds,
  case rules, suggestions), each run in its own language (`lang` from PPTX), with a user dictionary
  for Add to Dictionary. Red squiggles on the current slide come from a worker thread, with a
  context menu to correct, ignore or add; table cells and speaker notes are squiggled too, each
  with a right-click menu; repeated words (`the the`) are flagged with Delete Repeated Word;
  Review › Language marks the selection's proofing language or Do Not Check Spelling
  (`lang`/`noProof` round-trip in PPTX). No grammar checking. The web build checks on the UI thread a few milliseconds per
  frame. None ship with DeckCraft, so without one installed (always on Windows and the web) only a
  short list of common misspellings is found.
  Thesaurus (#549) and AutoCorrect (#521) have open PRs.
- **Estimate:** 1–2 h (bundle openly licensed dictionaries).

### Equations
- **Evidence:** checklist row missing; PR #55 (OMML editor, +10.5k lines) is open.
- **Estimate:** 3–6 h to review, land and round-trip.

### Smaller missing rows

markers on the slide: 3–5 h), password protection (4–6 h, ECMA-376 agile
encryption), ink to shape/text (6–10 h), icons and 3-D models (8–14 h, needs an open icon set).

## UI/UX

Detail in [ui-parity.md](ui-parity.md).

- **No native macOS menu bar.** `menus::menu_tree()` exists but nothing installs it. 3–5 h. **Beta
  blocker.**
- **Format Shape pane thinner than PowerPoint's** (Fill/Line/Effects/Size/Text Box pages, picture
  and texture options, 3-D). 6–10 h. **Beta blocker.**
- **File tab depth** (#76 landed the Backstage): no online templates, cloud places, printer
  choice, video/GIF/CD exports or document protection. 4–8 h for the parts that need no cloud.
- **Window chrome** (#71 macOS controls misaligned, #26 GNOME title bar, #41 system light/dark).
  2–4 h.
- **Icon consistency across Craft apps** (#73, #56). 2–4 h; coordinate in craftrules.
- **Dialogs**: 28 dialogs vs PowerPoint's ~60 (Font, Find/Replace dialog,
- **Dialogs**: 28 dialogs vs PowerPoint's ~60 (Font, Bullets and Numbering, Find/Replace dialog,
  Replace Fonts, Action Settings, Print, Insert Object…). 8–14 h.
- **Dialogs**: 28 dialogs vs PowerPoint's ~60 (Font, Bullets and Numbering, Find/Replace dialog,
  Replace Fonts, Action Settings, Print, Insert Object…). Size and Position is one of the 28. 8–14 h.
- **Dialogs**: 28 dialogs vs PowerPoint's ~60 (Photo Album is one of them). Still missing Font,
- **Dialogs**: 28 dialogs vs PowerPoint's ~60 (Photo Album is one of them; Edit Photo Album reopens it). Still missing Font,
  Bullets and Numbering, Find/Replace, Replace Fonts, Action Settings, Print, Insert Object…. 8–14 h.
- **Dialogs**: 28 dialogs vs PowerPoint's ~60. Create New Theme Colors (Design › Colors ›
  Customize Colors…) edits the open master's twelve theme colours, not a saved library of named
  schemes. Still missing: Font, Bullets and Numbering, Find/Replace dialog, Replace Fonts, Action
  Settings, Print, Insert Object. 8–14 h.
- **Dialogs**: 28 dialogs vs PowerPoint's ~60. Create New Theme Fonts (Design › Fonts ›
  Customize Fonts…) edits the open master's heading and body latin faces and the scheme name.
  It is not a saved library of theme fonts, and it does not pick East Asian or complex-script
  faces. Still missing: Font, Bullets and Numbering, Find/Replace dialog, Replace Fonts, Action
  Settings, Print, Insert Object. 8–14 h.
- **Dialogs**: 28 dialogs vs PowerPoint's ~60 (Font, Bullets and Numbering, Find/Replace dialog,
  Action Settings, Print, Insert Object…). 8–14 h.
- **Dialogs**: 30 dialogs vs PowerPoint's ~60 (Font, Find/Replace dialog, Replace Fonts, Print,
  Insert Object…). Size and Position, Bullets and Numbering, Action Settings and Date and Time are in. 8–14 h.
- **Dialogs**: 28 dialogs vs PowerPoint's ~60. The Font dialog is in (family, size, style, underline,
  colour, strikethrough, baseline, caps, character spacing, one undo step). Still missing: Bullets
  and Numbering, Find/Replace, Replace Fonts, Action Settings, Print, Insert Object…. 6–12 h.
- **Dialogs**: 29 dialogs vs PowerPoint's ~60. The Font dialog and the Paragraph dialog are in
  (Paragraph: alignment, first-line and hanging indents, spacing before/after, line spacing, and a
  Tabs dialog, each OK one undo step). Still missing: Bullets and Numbering, Find/Replace, Replace
  Fonts, Action Settings, Print, Insert Object…. 4–8 h.
- **Command palette defaults to an Export entry that fails** (#79). 0.5 h.

## Hardware

Detail in [hardware-parity.md](hardware-parity.md).

- **Presenter view isn't placed on the second display**; the show doesn't pick the projector. 3–5 h.
  **Beta blocker.**
- **CPU slide rasterization** (`vello_cpu`); PowerPoint renders on the GPU. 12–20 h (vello hybrid
  or wgpu path).
- **Software-only video decode**; PowerPoint uses VideoToolbox/Media Foundation. 8–14 h (copy
  FilmCraft's hardware decode).
- **No pen pressure or tilt for ink**; no pinch-zoom (it does not keep the point under the pointer). A two-finger twist does rotate the selected shapes. 3–6 h.
- **No pen pressure or tilt for ink**; no pinch-zoom. A trackpad swipe turns the page when the
  slide fits the window, and during the show. 2–4 h for pinch-zoom.

## Localization

Detail in [localization-parity.md](localization-parity.md).

- **English only, no string catalog** (#15, #30; Ukrainian PR #34 open). PowerPoint for Mac ships
  26 languages. Infrastructure 8–14 h, then 3–16 h per language plus native review. Beta needs the
  infrastructure and at least Simplified Chinese, Spanish, French, German and Japanese (~30–45 h).
- **Hangul in the interface needs an installed Korean font** (#101). craft-fonts has no Korean face
  (Noto CJK is excluded by the asset policy), so the web build draws Korean file names, notes and
  outline text as boxes; desktop borrows Malgun Gothic, Apple SD Gothic Neo or Noto Sans CJK.
  Adding an openly licensed Korean face (e.g. Nanum Gothic, OFL) to craft-fonts: 1–2 h.
- **UI isn't mirrored for right-to-left languages.** 6–10 h.
- **Browser build draws Arabic and Hebrew as missing-glyph boxes in exports** (#81). 1–2 h.

## Performance

- **Baseline measured, not compared.** `cargo xtask bench` (and `deckcraft-cli bench FILE`) times
  open, per-slide render, save, PPTX round trip and PDF export, and peak memory, against a saved
  baseline; show frame rate isn't measured and there are no PowerPoint numbers to set beside it.
  2–4 h.
- **Morph aligns outlines every frame** (#67, PR open). 1 h.

## Ecosystem

- **Six original starter decks; PowerPoint's large template gallery remains.** File › New and the
  start screen offer Briefing, Lesson, Pitch, Field Notes, Quarterly and Evening Talk
  (`file.new {template}`), each a few slides on one of our themes. Dozens of further offline
  designs, and any online gallery, are still absent. 4–8 h for a larger original set (asset policy:
  our own designs only).
- **No add-ins or VBA.** Out of scope by policy; MCP/CLI automation is the alternative.

## AI features

- **No Designer, Copilot, Speaker Coach, live subtitles or Translate.** All are Microsoft cloud
  services; an offline rule-based Designer is in the catalogue (P2). Local models (speech-to-text
  for subtitles, translation) need an owner decision on licensed models. 20–40 h.

| 2026-10-13 | trivial | Command palette skips commands that need a value, so Export opens the dialog (#79) |
| 2026-10-14 | minor | Design ▸ Effects applies a named effect scheme. The checklist row stays P, so breadth stays 79%. Dialogs stay 27 |
| 2026-10-14 | minor | Slide Master Preserve and Title/Footers placeholders. Checklist letters unchanged (breadth stays 79%); dialogs stay 27 |
| 2026-10-13 | minor | AutoCorrect options: case rules, fractions, ellipsis, a larger built-in list and your own entries (`text.autocorrect`, Tools ▸ AutoCorrect) |
