# replaceAllTextInSlides

Replace all matching text across a presentation. It reaches slides, speaker notes, layouts and masters, so a match on a layout or master changes every slide that uses it. A match can run across paragraphs inside one text box or table cell, never across two. Pass expectedCount to refuse the write when the count differs.
