Hi there,

 

Thank you for reaching out. I agree with @Mylenium, and as he said, this is not possible as of now. But I will forward this to the Product team.

No, there isn't. I believe there's a plug-in for such stuff directly in AI, but otherwise you would need to export a PDF, SVG, PNG or whatever from PPT. If you do this a lot, you may consider switching to Mathematica or LaTex and use their math layout tools which can actually produce proper AI data and files.
