using (Presentation pres = new Presentation())
{
    // Your code goes here
}

Step 3: Get the First Slide

Retrieve the first slide from the presentation to work with.

ISlide sld = pres.Slides[0];

Step 4: Instantiate ImageEx Class

Create an instance of the ImageEx class to handle the image you want to add to the slide.

System.Drawing.Image img = (System.Drawing.Image)new Bitmap(dataDir + "aspose-logo.jpg");
IPPImage imgx = pres.Images.AddImage(img);

Step 5: Add Picture Frame

Utilize the AddPictureFrame method to add a picture frame to the slide. Specify the dimensions and position of the frame.

sld.Shapes.AddPictureFrame(ShapeType.Rectangle, 50, 150, imgx.Width, imgx.Height, imgx);

Step 6: Save the Presentation

Save the modified presentation to disk.

pres.Save(dataDir + "AddStretchOffsetForImageFill_out.pptx", SaveFormat.Pptx);
