This converter creates a .pptx file with one slide for every PDF page you select. Each page is rendered as a JPEG at 150 or 200 DPI and centred on a slide whose size is taken from the first page, up to PowerPoint's 56-inch limit. The result opens in PowerPoint, Keynote, Google Slides and LibreOffice Impress, and looks exactly like the PDF because each slide is a picture. The trade-off is that text and charts cannot be edited, and long documents give large files. It works on scanned PDFs too. Pick a page range to present only part of a document, such as an appendix or a few charts. The deck is assembled with PptxGenJS in your browser and nothing is uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

Does the PPTX open in Google Slides and Keynote?

Yes. PPTX is the standard PowerPoint format, and Google Slides, Apple Keynote and LibreOffice Impress all import it. Each slide contains one image, so it displays the same in every app.

Is the text in the PPTX editable?

No. Each page is placed on its slide as a JPEG picture, so the text cannot be changed. You can still add text boxes, arrows or notes on top of the page image in PowerPoint.

Should I choose 150 or 200 DPI?

Use 150 DPI for screen presentations and smaller files. Pick 200 DPI if the PDF has small print or fine diagrams that people will read up close, knowing each slide image will be larger.

How are slide dimensions chosen?

From the first page of the PDF, converted from points to inches and capped at 56 inches on the longest side. Pages with a different shape are scaled down and centred on the slide.

Does PDF to PPTX work with scanned documents?

Yes. Pages are rendered as pictures, so scans convert fine. If you also want searchable text, run PDF OCR on the file separately; the slides themselves will still be images.
