PDF to PowerPoint
Convert PDF pages to PowerPoint directly in your browser
Turn a PDF into a PPTX presentation without installing software. Choose editable text for text-based PDFs, or preserve the page appearance by placing each PDF page onto its own PowerPoint slide as an image.
PDF to PowerPoint
Select one PDF and choose how you want the PowerPoint presentation to be created.
Privacy note: the PDF you select is read and converted in your browser by this tool. 2PDF2 does not intentionally upload the selected PDF to its own server for conversion. The webpage itself may still connect to third-party services such as our code-delivery provider, analytics, or advertising services as described in our Privacy Policy.
How to convert PDF to PowerPoint
- Select Choose PDF file and add one PDF.
- Choose Editable text slides or Preserve appearance.
- Select Convert to PowerPoint and keep the browser tab open during processing.
- Wait until the tool verifies that a valid PPTX package was generated.
- Download the PowerPoint file and review the slides before editing or presenting.
Two ways to create the PowerPoint
Editable text slides
Extracts readable text from each PDF page and creates editable PowerPoint text boxes. This is useful when editing the information matters more than reproducing the exact original layout.
Preserve appearance
Renders every PDF page and places it onto its own slide as an image. This normally gives a closer visual result for scans, forms, charts, and complex page designs.
One source page per slide
Each PDF page becomes a separate PowerPoint slide, keeping the document order predictable.
Local processing
The selected PDF is processed in your browser instead of being uploaded to a 2PDF2 server for conversion.
What works best with editable text?
Editable-text mode works best with PDFs that already contain selectable text, such as reports, manuals, proposals, and documents exported from office applications. It does not perform OCR, so image-only scans may contain little or no editable text.
Why a PDF and PowerPoint may not look identical
PDF is a fixed-layout document format, while PowerPoint is built around editable slide objects. Reconstructing complex columns, fonts, diagrams, tables, forms, and exact object positions from a PDF is not guaranteed. Use Preserve appearance when visual similarity is more important than editing individual elements.
What Preserve appearance means
In Preserve appearance mode, each PDF page is rendered as an image and fitted onto a widescreen PowerPoint slide. The visual layout is retained more closely, but text, tables, and other elements on that page image cannot be edited individually in PowerPoint.
Frequently asked questions
Is the PDF to PowerPoint tool free to use?
Yes. The current 2PDF2 PDF to PowerPoint tool can be used without a paid account.
Is my PDF uploaded to 2PDF2?
The converter processes the selected PDF in your browser and does not intentionally send that PDF to a 2PDF2 server for conversion. Normal webpage requests to third-party services may still occur; see the Privacy Policy for details.
Can I edit the PowerPoint after conversion?
In Editable text slides mode, extracted text can be edited. In Preserve appearance mode, each PDF page is inserted as an image, so the content inside that image is not individually editable.
Can this tool convert scanned PDFs into editable slide text?
Not in the current editable mode because it does not perform OCR. Use Preserve appearance for scanned pages.
Will tables, charts, and columns remain editable?
Not reliably. Editable mode primarily extracts text. Preserve appearance keeps those elements visually by inserting the page as an image, but they are not recreated as separate PowerPoint objects.
Can I convert a password-protected PDF?
Not with this converter. Use an authorized method to remove the protection first, then select the unlocked PDF.

Built for transparent document conversion
2PDF2 provides different conversion methods because editable content and exact visual preservation are different goals. For questions, bug reports, or feedback, visit our Contact page.
