DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

for (ISlide slide : pres.getSlides()) {
    // generates a slide image as a byte array stream
    IImage image = slide.getImage(1, 1);
    ByteArrayOutputStream imageStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

            builder.writeln(((AutoShape) shape).getTextFrame().getText());
