How it works

  1. Add a PowerPoint file.
  2. Convert it. The file is sent to our servers and read there.
  3. Download the result.

One page per slide, ready to send

The usual reason is sending a deck to somebody who may not have the software, or printing handouts.

Animations collapse to their final state

A slide built up in six clicks arrives as the finished slide. Split it across several slides if the build was the point.

Speaker notes are not included

The PDF holds the slides. If the notes matter, put them on the slide or send them separately.

Dark backgrounds print badly

A deck designed for a projector uses a lot of ink on paper and can be unreadable in greyscale.

Check embedded video

Video does not survive in a PDF. What remains is the poster frame.

Where this is the wrong tool. This uploads. The file is sent over an encrypted connection, converted on our servers and deleted after 24 hours. Anything that depended on being played rather than looked at does not come across.

Questions

Do animations survive?

No. A PDF page is still, so each slide arrives in its final state. That is usually what you want for sending or printing.

Are speaker notes included?

No, only the slides.

Is my file uploaded?

Yes, and deleted afterwards.

Do my fonts come through?

Standard Office fonts do. An unusual font we do not have is substituted, which can move text on a tight slide.
