PowerPoint to PDF · Desktop beta
Convert a PPTX file to PDF on your PC. Chrome/Edge 137+; large first-run download.
What PowerPoint to PDF · Desktop beta helps you do
Make a PDF from PowerPoint slides, shapes and static images without sending the document to a conversion server. This desktop beta uses a local LibreOffice engine and needs a capable PC.
How to use it
- Select one PPTX file, up to 5 MiB.
- Read the desktop and download requirements, acknowledge them, then choose Convert to PDF.
- Wait for the engine download and conversion. Cancel stops the local engine.
- Inspect the first-page previews and download the complete PDF. Compare important formatting with the original.
Input and output example
PPTX containing two 16:9 slidesOUTPUT
Two landscape PDF pages; animation, audio and video are not retained
Supported formats and limits
- Only PPTX; one file at a time, maximum 5 MiB. Legacy DOC/XLS/PPT, password-protected files and damaged packages are not supported.
- Desktop Chrome or Edge 137+ with WebAssembly JSPI. Mobile devices and browsers without JSPI are not supported. A capable PC with at least 4 GB RAM is recommended.
- The first run downloads a large engine and Korean font from this site. It can use around 1 GB of working memory. Browser cache settings determine whether another download is needed.
- Macros, embedded OLE objects and externally linked resources are rejected. Font substitution and differences in charts, pagination or spreadsheet print settings can affect the PDF.
- This beta does not convert PDFs back to Word, PowerPoint or Excel. It does not restore editable content from PDFs.
How the result is calculated
A pinned LibreOffice WebAssembly build imports the PPTX package and exports PDF locally. Each slide becomes a static PDF page. Previews show up to the first three pages. No file content is uploaded.
Frequently asked questions
Is my Office file uploaded?
No. The browser downloads public engine and font assets, then works with your document in memory. The document, its filename and output are not included in engine requests.
Why is this a desktop beta?
The engine is much larger and more memory-intensive than the other tools and needs a recent Chromium browser. Real documents can expose font or layout differences; compare the result before using it.
Will animations play in the PDF?
No. The output is static PDF pages; animation, transitions, audio and video are not retained.
