Investor wants the deck as a PDF. Client requires the proposal in PDF. The internal share is easier as a PDF. PowerPoint exports natively, but an online flow works too.
One drag, one PDF
Flint's PowerPoint to PDF accepts PPTX and converts in seconds. Server-side conversion, no install, no watermark.
Each slide becomes a PDF page. Fonts embed, images preserve, hyperlinks work.
What survives the conversion
Preserved: text, fonts, layout, images, charts (as images), shapes, hyperlinks, slide numbers, headers/footers.
Not preserved: animations, transitions, embedded videos (become placeholders), interactivity, presenter view artifacts. PDFs are static — animation effects only exist in PowerPoint itself.
Hidden slides
Hidden slides are excluded from the PDF by default. Useful for backup slides, appendix material, or version-specific slides you don't want in this export. Hide via right-click > Hide Slide in PowerPoint.
To include hidden slides, unhide before converting.
Slide size matching
PowerPoint slides come in two common sizes: 4:3 (older) and 16:9 (modern widescreen). The PDF page matches the slide size. If you want US Letter PDF pages, change slide size in PowerPoint first (Design > Slide Size > Custom Slide Size > Letter).
FAQ
Will animations carry across?
No — PDFs don't support animations. The static final frame of each animation is what shows.
What about embedded videos?
Become poster-frame images in the PDF. No video playback. Link to video separately if needed.
Can I include speaker notes?
Use PowerPoint's Notes Pages export specifically. Standard PDF conversion shows slides only.
Is there a file size limit?
Generous limits — typical decks well under the cap. Massive image-heavy decks may benefit from compression after conversion.
