1. A method for converting a presentation file to Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA), the method comprising: prior to receiving a command to convert one or more presentation slides to a DITA document, a computer receiving a command to group graphical elements located on a presentation slide; responsive to receiving the command to group graphical elements located on the presentation slide, the computer assigning metadata tags to the grouped graphical elements, the metadata tags comprising at least in part a file name for the group of graphical elements and an indication that the group is to be exported to a single image file the computer receiving a command to convert one or more presentation slides to a DITA document, wherein the one or more presentation slides to be converted have been tagged with metadata corresponding to topic type and grouped graphical element file names; responsive to receiving the command to convert one or more presentation slides to a DITA document, the computer compiling information from the presentation slide, the information selected from the group consisting of the metadata tags, text in the presentation slide, text in a notes section of the presentation slide, and grouped graphical element file names from a first presentation slide of the one or more presentation slides into a string parsed with DITA markup; the computer accessing the metadata tags for a second presentation slide and determining whether the second presentation slide is a new topic; the computer determining that the second presentation slide is a new topic; and responsive to determining that the second presentation slide is a new topic, the computer converting the string parsed with DITA markup to a DITA topic defined by the metadata in the presentation slide.

The method of claim 1 , further comprising: prior to the command to convert one or more presentation slides to a DITA document, the computer receiving a command to edit metadata tags corresponding to a presentation slide; responsive to receiving the command to edit metadata tags corresponding to a presentation slide, the computer prompting a user to define metadata tags for the presentation slide; and responsive to a user defining metadata tags for the presentation slide, the computer assigning the defined metadata tags to the presentation slide, the defined metadata tags comprising at least in part topic type, topic title and topic file name.
