Convert PowerPoint to PDF

Turn a slide deck into a PDF that opens anywhere and prints properly. Every slide becomes one page, and the text stays real selectable text rather than becoming a picture of the slide.

Files are never uploaded

How to use it

Add the presentation

Drop your .pptx onto the box above, or click to browse. One deck is converted at a time so the download name stays unambiguous.

Make sure it is a .pptx

This tool reads the current XML-based format used by PowerPoint 2007 and later, and by Keynote, Google Slides and LibreOffice when they export. A file ending in .ppt is the old binary format and has to be re-saved as .pptx in PowerPoint first.

Let it read the deck

Each slide is examined in order: every shape’s position and size is read, the text on it is measured, and pictures are collected. A deck of many slides takes proportionally longer.

Open the PDF and check it

You get one page per slide, at the slide’s own size. Text is selectable and searchable. Look over graphic-heavy slides — charts and SmartArt cannot be drawn and will be missing.

Download the PDF

Save the file. The original .pptx is left untouched on your computer, and the PDF can be shared, printed or attached straight away.

Common issues

A .ppt file is rejected

Files saved by PowerPoint 2003 and earlier use the binary .ppt format, which this reader cannot parse. Open the file, choose Save As, pick PowerPoint Presentation (.pptx), then convert that.

Non-Latin text disappears

Because the PDF is built with a Latin font, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Cyrillic, Arabic and similar scripts are dropped. If your deck is mainly in one of those languages, export the PDF from PowerPoint instead.

Charts, SmartArt and WordArt are missing

Those are separate drawing objects with no equivalent here, so slides built around a chart will come across with the surrounding text and pictures but not the chart itself. Export those slides as images if the chart matters.

The design is not reproduced

Backgrounds, shape fills, gradients, shadows, themes and theme fonts are not drawn — expect a clean, readable document in the layout of the original, not a colour-matched replica.

Frequently asked questions

Is my presentation uploaded?
No. The .pptx file is opened and converted inside your browser tab. Nothing is sent to a server, so an unreleased deck or an internal report never leaves your device.
Which PowerPoint formats can it read?
The .pptx format — the XML-based one used since PowerPoint 2007, and what Keynote, Google Slides and LibreOffice produce when they export to PowerPoint. The older .ppt binary format is not supported; open it in PowerPoint and save as .pptx first.
Will the text be selectable and searchable?
Yes. Each line is drawn as real text with a standard font, not as a picture of the slide, so you can select, copy and search it, and a screen reader can read it.
How closely does the layout match my slides?
Each text box is placed at its original position and drawn at its original point size, with left, centred and right alignment preserved, wrapping inside the box the same way the slide does. Fonts, text colour, shape fills and effects are not reproduced — the position and wording are.
Are pictures carried over?
Yes. PNG and JPEG pictures are placed back at the position and size they had on the slide, scaled to fit if needed. Other image formats — EMF, WMF, TIFF — cannot be embedded and are skipped.
Do tables come across?
Yes. A table is rebuilt as a real table on the page: the columns are sized from the slide’s own column widths, and the cells are drawn with light grid lines so it reads the same way it did on the slide.
What is not converted?
Charts, SmartArt, WordArt, embedded audio and video, animations, slide transitions and speaker notes. Shape fills, gradients, shadows and rounded corners are not drawn either, and rotated shapes are placed without their rotation. The words, pictures and tables are what carry across.
Can it handle Chinese, Japanese or Korean text?
No. The PDF is built with a browser-standard Latin font that covers the Latin alphabet and Western European accents only. Characters outside that range are removed — the same limitation applies to Word to PDF. For those languages, export the PDF from PowerPoint itself.
What size will the PDF pages be?
Each page is the size of the slide, so a 16:9 deck gives widescreen pages and a 4:3 deck gives classic ones. Long paragraphs wrap inside their box rather than running off the page, so a page may run slightly longer than one screen.
