    Hi vjnvinod,

     

    You could import a custom theme woth your PPT color scheme.

    Add this kind of code in e.g. Notepad - use HEX codes for colors, HEX codes start with "#". Save it as a text file.

     

    {
    "name": "PPT Colors",
    "dataColors": ["color1", "Color2", "Color3", "Color4", "Color5"],
    "tableAccent": "ColorX"
}

    Then import this custom theme into Power BI Desktop. Remember to search all files (not just .json files) so you can find the text file.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Heres some additional info.

        Hi vjnvinod,

         

        You should know the color type and font names used in PPT, then, you can specify the same color and font in a report theme file which will be imported into desktop. See: Use Report Themes in Power BI Desktop.

         

        Besides, here is a thread showing how to use PPT template as Power BI report background.

         

        Best regards,
