Answer 1

aspose will give u truncated text if u don't have the license of it. so it will be better for you if you will use Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint

use as below

public void ReadSlide(){

        string filePath= @"C:\Users\UserName\Slide.pptx";

        Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Application PowerPoint_App = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Application();
        Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Presentations multi_presentations = PowerPoint_App.Presentations;
        Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Presentation presentation = multi_presentations.Open(filePath, MsoTriState.msoFalse, MsoTriState.msoFalse, MsoTriState.msoFalse);

        string presentation_textforParent = "";
        foreach (var item in presentation.Slides[1].Shapes)
        {
            var shape = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Shape)item;
            if (shape.HasTextFrame == MsoTriState.msoTrue)
            {
                if (shape.TextFrame.HasText == MsoTriState.msoTrue)
                {
                    var textRange = shape.TextFrame.TextRange;
                    var text = textRange.Text;

                    presentation_textforParent += text + " ";
                }
            }
        }

}
