Convert a PowerPoint deck to PDF in your browser, without uploading it. Each slide becomes one PDF page at the slide's own size, and your layouts, colours, images and tables are kept — a real rendering of the deck, not a list of bullet points. Text stays selectable and searchable. Fonts are matched to the closest standard PDF typeface, so a licensed display font may not come through identically, and animations and transitions are dropped because they have no meaning on paper.
How to use PowerPoint to PDF
- Click "Select PowerPoint file" and choose the .pptx. An older .ppt is refused — open it in PowerPoint and Save As .pptx first.
- Click "Convert to PDF" and wait. A long deck takes longer because every slide is drawn.
- Download the PDF and flip through it once. The slides most likely to differ are those using a custom font or a transition.
Who it is for
PowerPoint to PDF is for sending a deck to someone who will only read it: a client, a conference, a printer, a job application. It is also the honest way to hand out slides, because it removes the temptation and the ability to edit them, and because a PDF opens on a phone that has no PowerPoint.
How it works
- Every slide is drawn into a PDF page at the slide's own dimensions, so a 16:9 deck gives 16:9 pages with no white bands around the content.
- Layouts, colours, images and tables are carried across because the slide is rendered rather than summarised into text.
- Text stays selectable and searchable, so a PDF deck can still be found by search on a phone.
What it cannot do
- Fonts are matched to the closest standard PDF typeface. A licensed display font can shift slightly in spacing or weight, and that is the difference a client will notice.
- Animations and transitions are dropped. Each slide flattens to its final state, which is all a PDF can represent.
- Only .pptx is accepted; an older .ppt must be saved as .pptx first.
- Slides are rendered, not rebuilt as editable objects, so the PDF is a shareable copy rather than something to edit afterwards.
Frequently asked questions
Will my fonts look the same?
Closely, but not always exactly. Text is drawn into the PDF using the closest standard typeface available to the converter, so a custom or licensed font can shift slightly in spacing or weight. If a deck is going to a client, check it — this is the one difference that shows.
Do animations and transitions appear?
No. A PDF has no notion of movement, so both are dropped and each slide is flattened to its final state.
Each slide is a full page — is that right?
Yes. The page takes the slide's own dimensions, so a 16:9 deck gives 16:9 pages and a 4:3 deck gives 4:3 pages, with no white bands added around the content.
Can I still edit the PDF afterwards?
You can annotate it with the other tools here, but the slides are rendered rather than rebuilt as editable objects. If you need editable slides, edit the .pptx — the PDF is the shareable copy.
Is my presentation uploaded?
No. The .pptx is read and the PDF is assembled in your browser with jsPDF and JSZip, so an unreleased deck never leaves your device.
