How to convert PowerPoint to PDF, end to end.
Three clicks from a dropzone on this page to a finished PDF in your Downloads folder. You never open PowerPoint, you never pay for an export add-in.
Drop your deck on this page.
Drag your .ppt or .pptx from your desktop, or click to browse. It uploads encrypted. We can't see it.We render every slide.
Your fonts, images, and layout come through intact. Each slide lays out onto its own PDF page so the reading order matches your deck.Download. We forget.
Your PDF lands in Downloads, ready to send anywhere. Our copy is deleted within the hour.
What you can actually do on this page.
Five honest moves you can finish in the browser you're already in. No Adobe, no Office, no half-features held behind a paywall.
No font-fallback surprises.
Your typography stays pinned to the PDF, so the projector in a conference room doesn't swap your brand font for Times New Roman at the worst moment. What you saw in PowerPoint is what everyone sees.
Works on any OS — Mac, PC, Chromebook, phone.
The converter runs in your browser so the recipient doesn't need PowerPoint, Keynote, or a cloud login. They open the PDF and see the same deck you did.
Layout and images preserved.
Your slide master, image positions, bullet spacing, and color palette come through to the PDF exactly the way you laid them out. Nothing drifts on someone else's machine.
.ppt and .pptx both work.
Old .ppt files from PowerPoint 2003, modern .pptx from PowerPoint 365 and Google Slides export, open-source .pptx from LibreOffice Impress — all handled by the same dropzone.
Never a watermark.
Free means free. No stamp on slide 1, no diagonal "sample," no gotcha at download.

More ways to turn PowerPoint into PDF
PowerPoint to PDF without Office
You don't need Microsoft Office installed to get a PDF out of a presentation. The converter runs in your browser and returns the same print-ready file you'd get from File → Export in PowerPoint.
PPTX to PDF for Mac
Mac users can drop the .pptx directly in the browser and skip the detour through Keynote or PowerPoint for Mac. Your PDF lands in Downloads like any other file.
PowerPoint to PDF for projectors
A PDF renders the same way on every projector, every laptop, every tablet. You won't find your carefully-chosen brand font replaced by Calibri thirty seconds before the talk starts.
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to what people ask us most about editing a PDF online for free. Tap any question and the answer expands inline.
Will my fonts and layout come through?
Yes — fonts, images, spacing, and color stay pinned to the PDF. The converter embeds the typography so your deck looks identical on any projector, laptop, or phone.
What about animations and transitions?
A PDF is a static format, so animations and slide transitions don't carry over. Every slide lands on its own PDF page in the order you set — this is the standard way decks travel for review, print, and archive.
Will embedded video survive?
Video playback isn't part of the PDF format. The first frame or poster image renders on the slide so the layout still reads correctly; the video itself needs the source deck if you want it to play.
Does it handle big decks?
Up to 100 MB on the free plan, which covers almost every conference deck or training presentation. Pro handles up to 500 MB for the really heavy stuff.
Will the PDF have a watermark?
Never. Not on free, not on Pro, not ever.
Is it really free? What's the catch?
There isn't one. Converting, editing, merging, signing — all free, for as long as you need them. No signup, no watermark, no trial timer.
What's the difference between .ppt and .pptx?
.ppt is the older PowerPoint 2003-and-earlier format; .pptx is the modern one from PowerPoint 2007 onward. Both drop on this page the same way and return the same clean PDF.
What happens to my file after I'm done?
Deleted within one hour of upload. Encrypted in transit and at rest. Never read by a human, never shared, never used to train anything.
Does it work on an iPad, Chromebook, or phone?
Yes. Any browser — Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge. Upload, wait a few seconds, download. Same flow on every device.
