for slide_num, slide in enumerate(prs.slides, 1):
    print(f"\n--- Slide {slide_num} ---")
    for shape in slide.shapes:
        if shape.has_text_frame:

from pptx import Presentation
from copy import deepcopy

prs = Presentation("source.pptx")
# Note: python-pptx doesn't directly support slide copying
# Use slide layouts from the same presentation instead
