PDF to PowerPoint converter

Turn each page of a PDF into an editable PowerPoint slide.

Drop a PDF here, or choose one: it opens on this page.

Minda Files converts a PDF to PowerPoint in your browser: each page becomes a slide, with its words as editable text boxes where they stood, over the page drawn without them. Pictures, charts and tables stay part of the slide’s picture. Nothing is uploaded, it is free with no account, and the .pptx opens in the editor, PowerPoint, Google Slides, Keynote or Canva.

How to convert a PDF to PowerPoint

  1. Drop a PDF on the page, or press Choose a file.
  2. Keep Editable text, or pick Pictures for slides that look exactly like the pages. For a deck exported as pictures, turn on Read picture pages with Minda AI.
  3. Press Convert to PowerPoint, then download the .pptx or press Open in editor.
  • What it keeps Each slide is the page as a picture with its words over it as text boxes, where they stood, in Arial. Pictures, shapes, charts and tables stay part of the slide's picture.
  • Slide size the deck takes its pages’ size (the most common one when they differ, the others fitted inside), so a widescreen deck exported as PDF comes back widescreen.
  • Picture pages a page with no text inside it (a NotebookLM or Gamma deck exported as pictures, a scan) stays a picture unless Read picture pages with Minda AI is on: then its picture is sent to Minda AI, which reads the words and makes them text boxes too. Signed in, on Minda AI credits, at most 40 pages a run.

Can I edit the text on the slides?
