Has anyone tried this with PowerPoint yet? Our org is very PowerPoint centric and always struggle a bit with the workflow for code.

Copy pasting from IntelliJ does give colours but none of the other niceties such as kerning or litigation. Screenshots are nice visually but a pain to maintain.

From the article cons section:

> It only works where OpenType is supported. Fortunately, that's all major browsers and most modern programs. However, something like PowerPoint doesn't support OpenType.

*ligatures

Is kerning a thing for monospace fonts?

  • Yes, ligatures. No idea where “litigations” came from.

    I think there is still some kerning going on where the individual letters are placed closer together and the entire word has the same width so more spacing in between words.
