PDF to PowerPoint
Turn a PDF into a .pptx deck — one slide per page, either as pixel-faithful page images or as editable text boxes laid out where the words sit. Built in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
Open PDF to PowerPoint →What is the PDF to PowerPoint converter?
A private, offline converter that turns a PDF into a .pptx deck with one slide per page, sized to match the original page. It offers the two honest ways of doing that job: "Page images" renders each page and drops it onto a slide, which looks exactly like the PDF but is a picture; "Editable text boxes" places every run of text from the PDF's text layer as a real PowerPoint text box at its original position, size, weight and slant, which you can edit and restyle but which leaves images and vector artwork behind. Either way the page's words can also be written into the speaker notes. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded, and it works offline.
How to use PDF to PowerPoint
- Add your PDF — Drop a PDF onto the dropzone or click to choose one. Page thumbnails appear as they render, all selected to begin with.
- Pick the slides you want — Click a page to include or exclude it, or use Select all and Clear. Only the selected pages become slides.
- Choose how the slides are built — "Page images — exact look" for a faithful copy, or "Editable text boxes" when you need to change the words afterwards.
- Set the quality — For page images, Screen keeps the file small, Good suits most decks, and Sharp is for projecting or printing. Higher quality means a bigger .pptx.
- Download the .pptx — Use the download button in the tool header. Open the deck in PowerPoint, Keynote, Google Slides or LibreOffice Impress.
Frequently asked questions
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
No. The pages are rendered and the deck is assembled entirely in your browser, so the file never leaves your device. It works offline after the first load.
Which mode should I choose?
Page images if the deck just needs to look right — a printed report, a poster, anything with charts or artwork. Editable text boxes if you need to change the wording, restyle the type, or pull the text into another deck. There is no mode that gives you both, because a PDF does not store the original slide objects.
Why is my text mode slide missing images and lines?
Because a PDF's text layer contains only text. Logos, photographs, chart artwork and ruled lines are drawn as separate graphics that cannot be turned back into editable PowerPoint shapes, so text mode leaves them out. Use page images when those matter.
What slide size do I get?
The deck is sized to the first selected page, so an A4 portrait PDF gives A4 portrait slides and a 16:9 export gives 16:9 slides. If later pages are a different shape they are fitted inside and centred rather than stretched.
Does it work on a scanned PDF?
Page images mode works perfectly — a scan is already a picture. Editable text mode has nothing to read, so run the file through the OCR tool first if you need the words.
What are the speaker notes for?
With the option ticked, each slide's notes carry that page's text. That gives you something searchable and copyable even in image mode, where the slide itself is a picture.
Tips
- Deselect cover pages, blank pages and back matter before exporting rather than deleting slides afterwards.
- Leave speaker notes on in image mode — it is the only way the text stays searchable in the deck.
- Screen quality is usually enough for sharing; only reach for Sharp when the deck will be projected or printed.
- Converting a long PDF? Thumbnails render progressively, so you can start selecting pages before the last one appears.
