I have never worked in Microsoft Publisher. To build the presentation we're having to input the same information from a microsoft excel master.

For instance- My excel has these columns: Item Title, Item Description, Item Dimensions, Notes, Created Date

From there, I'm having the RE-type the information underneath a picture of the item in powerpoint (or publisher) in order to present to the client. So I'm retyping the item name, description, dimensions, etc. I'm also reformatting slides each time I do this.

I know there's a way to streamline this process, to build a powerpoint and/or something in publisher that will bring in the data needed based on a merge (or maybe macro), but I haven't been able to figure out how. Any suggestions?
