PDF to PowerPoint questions
Didn't find your answer? Write to us and we'll reply by email.
How do I convert a PDF to PowerPoint?
Add the PDF, check the preview and press Convert & Download. You get a .pptx with one slide per page.
Is the text editable?
Yes. Every line becomes a text box at its original position, keeping its font, size, weight and color.
Can I move the pictures and shapes?
They’re kept as each slide’s background, with the original text removed so it doesn’t show twice. You can add, replace or crop pictures on top as usual.
What size are the slides?
Each slide matches the PDF page’s shape. A PDF exported from a widescreen deck gives widescreen slides; an A4 or Letter page gives portrait slides.
Does it work with scanned PDFs?
Scanned pages have no text to extract, so they arrive as pictures. Run them through OCR PDF first to recognize the text.
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. The slides are built in your browser, so the PDF never leaves your device.
