Hey,
I'm using Prism software (.pzfx) on MacBook Air macOS Monterey. I have 2018 of Microsoft Powerpoint version 16.16.27.
My problem is that I need to paste .pzfx files into powerpoint as metafile for editing but there is no paste special as metafile!!!
what should I do?

Here you go:

"...the PZFX format saves all of the data tables and info sheets in XML format and the rest of its information, such as graphs, layouts, and results, in a format only readable by Prism."
Contact GraphPad Prism support
I was suggesting that if you can't find a way to edit the files, then you can after they are converted. Then you could convert them back if that's what you want to do. I know, it's a lot of extra work. Just a suggestion.
A couple of things:
PowerPoint is not an Apple product.
Prism is not an Apple product.
XML is not an Apple product.
You are trying to accomplish something in PowerPoint so the place that may be of help is the Microsoft Help Community.
You are trying to use a GraphPad Prism file. Best help for GraphPad Prism would be GraphPad Support.
I am by no means an expert in these things but I would explain this way. .XML is what is called a format which (technically) defines the picture or file. Just as .JPEG is, for example. Apparently different vendors of software apps develop their own kinds of formats which they like to use for whatever reasons. Each has its own characteristics and limitations
I am not familiar with .pzfx files, but there are on line services that are able to convert most files to other formats. Give that a try.
Thank you for your reply.
But I don't want to convert pzfx file. I want a way that supports metafile for editing.
Thank you for explaining.
But I din't understand how can I use XML? is it a software that has a feature of " paste as metafile" ?
