Frequently asked questions
- How do I convert PowerPoint to PDF?
- Drop your .ppt or .pptx onto the upload area, press Convert, and download the resulting PDF a few seconds later.
- Will my slides look the same in PDF?
- Yes for standard fonts and layouts. If you used a custom font that isn't installed on the server, LibreOffice substitutes the closest match — usually invisible to the eye.
- Are slide animations included?
- PDF is a static format, so animations and transitions are flattened into a single frame per slide. The slide content itself is preserved.
- Are speaker notes included?
- No. By default the PDF contains only the slides, not the speaker notes. To include notes, export from PowerPoint directly with the "Notes Pages" layout — that's outside the scope of this tool.
- Why does this conversion need a server?
- PowerPoint's format needs a real presentation engine to render correctly to PDF. We use headless LibreOffice on our server, process the file in memory, and delete it within minutes — see the amber notice above.
- Is there a file size limit?
- Yes — up to 25 MB per file, with a 60-second cap per conversion. For huge decks with lots of media, compress images in PowerPoint first.
- Are my files stored or shared?
- No. Your file is processed in memory, the PDF is streamed back, and the temporary copy is deleted right after. Nobody at our end opens, reads or shares it.
- Will the PDF be searchable?
- Yes. Because we render from the source PowerPoint file, the resulting PDF contains real text — search, copy and screen readers all work.
- Is the conversion free?
- Yes — no fee, no signup, no watermark. The site is funded by ads on the rest of the pages.
- Can I convert old .ppt files (PowerPoint 97-2003)?
- Yes. Both .ppt and .pptx are accepted. Very old or unusual formatting may need a quick visual check after conversion.
