PDF presentations are easy to view but hard to edit. If you have received a PDF version of a presentation and need to modify the slides, add content, or reuse the material, extracting the text content makes that possible. This tool provides browser-based text extraction organized by page as individual slides.

Upload your PDF and the tool reads each page, extracting the text content and organizing it by slide number. You can copy the text and paste it into PowerPoint slides to recreate the presentation. All processing happens in your browser - no uploads, no server processing, 100% private.

PDF to PowerPoint conversion is useful for teams that need to reuse presentations shared as PDF, update slides from older files, or adapt content from reports into presentation format.

Why Convert PDF to PowerPoint?

Editing slide content. PDF presentations cannot be edited without specialized tools. Extracting text lets you change and update the content in PowerPoint.

Reusing presentation material. Repurposing content from existing PDF presentations saves time. Extract the structure and text, then update it for a new audience or purpose.

Adding animations and transitions. PowerPoint supports animations, slide transitions, and multimedia. Extracting text from a static PDF lets you rebuild the presentation with these features.

Collaboration. PowerPoint files support real-time collaboration in Microsoft 365. PDFs do not support this workflow.

Presenting live. PowerPoint's Presenter View, slide notes, and remote control support make it better for live presentations than displaying a PDF.

How to Use This Tool

Step 1 - Upload your PDF. Drag and drop your PDF file onto the upload area, or click to browse.

Step 2 - Review slide text. The extracted text appears organized by slide number.

Step 3 - Copy or download. Use the Copy button to copy to clipboard, or Download .txt to save as a text file.

Step 4 - Create slides. Paste the extracted text into PowerPoint slides to rebuild your presentation.
