Vector Jigsaw Puzzle Template
This is SO CLOSE to what I need but it just doesn’t seem to be quite close enough. I wish there was one shape for each possible puzzle piece e.g. Inside piece with 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4 bumps, with 2 variants of the 2-bump pieces (opposite vs adjacent); and then edge pieces with 0, 1, 2, 3 bumps with the 1 in each of 3 positions, and the 2 in each of 3 configuration; and corners.

Of course rotation is also an issue with the text boxes (so if you draw your one-bump piece with the bump pointing upward, but I need to place it in a slot where it has to point to the right, now my text is sideways. I want to create an info graphic showing multiple applications in a major IT project as puzzle pieces coming together over time, so I probably need a 15-20 piece “puzzle” (and I ideally would like to merge some shapes to make big pieces) and label each piece with the name of the application.
I’m going to see if I can work with this, but if there’s a version 2 that I am not seeing (since this is from 2011!) with more flexibility, I’d love to know about it. Great resource with many applications. The instructions for making a picture jigsaw only work with PowerPoint 2013 (onwards); I could not find a way to merge the picture with the jigsaw pieces in PowerPoint 2010, even after I had added the hidden “CombineShapes” tools to the Home ribbon. (In fact I found that in PPT2010 that these tools only work with shapes and are disabled as soon as a picture is involved in the selection.) It would therefore be usefult to note this fact in the instructions to prevent people from wasting their time trying to make it work in versions before PPT2013.
