What the PDF to PowerPoint tool does

Presentations often start life as a PDF: a paper, a report or a set of notes you want to talk through. Dropping each page onto a slide by hand takes a long time.

This tool does it for you in two ways. Page pictures give you slides that look exactly like the PDF, which is best for showing diagrams and figures. Editable text gives you slides with the words as text you can change, which is best when you want to rework the content.

How to use it in four steps

  1. Open the PDF to PowerPoint tool and choose your PDF.
  2. Choose Page pictures or Editable text, and a quality for the pictures.
  3. Press Convert to PowerPoint.
  4. Download the .pptx file and open it in PowerPoint, Google Slides or Keynote.

How students use it

  • Present a journal article or report page by page.
  • Show a figure, chart or diagram from a paper as a clear slide.
  • Turn your own written notes into slides to build on.
  • Make slides from a scanned handout using page pictures.

Good to know

  • Page pictures cannot be edited, because each slide is an image of the page. They work for scans too.
  • Editable text needs a typed PDF. It keeps the words as headings, paragraphs and bullets, splits long pages over more than one slide, and does not keep the layout or pictures.
  • Keep the source of any figure and cite it in your presentation.
  • Large PDFs at high picture quality make large files, so choose a lower quality if the file is too big.

PDF to PowerPoint — your questions

Is PDF to PowerPoint really free?

Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on files. It runs in your browser.

Is my PDF uploaded?

No. The slides are built inside your browser tab and your document is never sent to us.

Can I edit the text on the slides?

Only if you choose Editable text. Page pictures are images of the pages, so the words cannot be changed.

Will it work on a scanned PDF?

Yes, with Page pictures, because each page is shown as an image. Editable text needs a PDF with a text layer.

How big will the PowerPoint file be?

It depends on the number of pages and the picture quality. Pictures at 150 DPI are sharp on screen. Lower the quality for a smaller file.
