Interop for MAC C#

Dec 11 2013 8:58 PM

I've been searching high and low for information on interop with the Mac versions of Office (specifically, PowerPoint). I haven't been able to find any documentation on what APIs are available, or even what protocol is used to access them... (something like COM? Apple-native automation APIs? something else entirely?)

It seems like it is possible, though. Various "PowerPoint remote control" apps exist for Mac that are able to make a running instance of PowerPoint switch slides, and even seem able to extract the presenter notes from each slide. That's clearly interop of some flavor!

All related to Microsoft.Office.Interop references require to have windows, is there any solution to my problem, or i just have run windows on a virtual machine...

Thank you in advance, Regards
