How to convert a PowerPoint presentation to PDF
Anyone can open a presentation as a PDF – even without PowerPoint and without fonts or slide layouts falling apart. It is a handy format for sending slides after a meeting, printing handouts or uploading to an e-learning platform.
- Add the PPTX file
Drop the presentation in the box above.
- Convert
Every slide is saved as a separate page in the slide format.
- Download the PDF
Combine several presentations into one file or save them separately.
Good to know
- we support .pptx files; save an older .ppt as .pptx first
- animations and transitions are not carried over – the PDF shows the final look of each slide
- videos and sounds embedded in slides are not included
Handouts for printing
You can print several slides per sheet using your printer’s “pages per sheet” setting, or shrink the PDF with Compress PDF before emailing it.
Frequently asked questions
Are speaker notes included in the PDF?
No, the PDF contains only the slides.
Will the slide text be selectable?
No. Slides are saved as images, so they look the same on every device.
Can I convert a Google Slides presentation?
