`slides`	Subset of slides to be returned. If `NULL`, all slides are returned.
`bgSubstract`	If `TRUE`, the background is subtracted from the foreground, before the transformation is performed. This argument was previously named `bg.subtract`, which still works, but is deprecated and will be removed in a future version.
