Turning a PDF into a PowerPoint presentation: common questions

How do I turn a PDF into a PowerPoint presentation?

Build the deck from your PDF, then click Export PowerPoint.

Can I convert PDF to PowerPoint for free?

Yes, within the free decks. After those, plans cost $5, $10 or $15 a month.

How is this different from importing a PDF into PowerPoint?

Importing puts each PDF page on a slide unchanged. Use it when the deck must show the pages as printed.

How do I present a PDF like a PowerPoint?

Click Present in the editor. The deck opens full screen in your browser.

Does it work with a scanned PDF?

No, the maker reads only selectable text. Paste a scanned PDF's text under Notes instead.

How long can my PDF be?

Up to 60,000 characters of text, never cut short. For a longer file, paste the part you need under Notes.

Does it make charts from my PDF?

Yes, from at least three figures in the PDF. Change any number in the Chart data panel and the chart redraws.

Does the deck keep the pictures from my PDF?

No. Add your own picture with the Picture and text layout.

What happens to my PDF?

Your browser reads the file. Only its text goes to our server and the AI model. Our server keeps no copy.

Make slides from a Word file, your notes or a research paper
