A three-page image-only PDF, rebuilt as one editable PowerPoint.

We made a three-page PDF in which every page is a single picture with no selectable text: a cover with key points, a chart page that we tilted and textured to imitate a scan, and a plan with a table. All figures and names are invented. Each page was converted the way the site converts the pages of your PDF, and the three results make up one .pptx. Pick a page to compare it with its slide; outlines mark text boxes and shapes.

How to convert a scanned or image-only PDF to editable PowerPoint

Only one page? Save it as a PNG or JPG and upload the image. Watermarked previews are free with any account (up to 3 a day). Unlock the editable file for $2.99 or 2 credits. A whole PDF has no preview and is charged per delivered page.

A PDF is 2 credits per delivered page, up to 30 pages, with no free preview. Failed pages are not charged.

  1. Check that the pages are pictures

    Open the PDF and try to select or search for a word. If nothing highlights, every page is a picture, which is what a scan or an exported slide deck looks like and what this page is for. If the text selects, see the FAQ below.

  2. Upload the PDF

    Drop or choose one PDF of up to 30 pages. Your browser splits it into page images and only those images are uploaded, not the PDF file. A longer PDF asks which pages to convert.

  3. Check the price and start

    The button shows the total: 2 credits for each page, so ten pages are 20 credits. You need to be logged in with enough credits. You are charged only for pages that are delivered.

  4. Wait, then download and edit

    Each page takes roughly 30 to 70 seconds and two are converted at a time, so keep the tab open. A page that fails is not charged and can be retried on its own for 2 credits. Download the .pptx, open it in PowerPoint or another app that reads .pptx, and check each slide against your PDF.

Pay per delivered page.

Several images in one deck: 2 credits a page with a subscription (up to 30 images), 3 without (up to 10), no free preview. A PDF (up to 30 pages): 2 credits per delivered page, no free preview. The $2.99 one-time card is for a single image only.

Questions

Can a scanned or image-only PDF become an editable PowerPoint?

Yes, if the pages are clear. Each page is rendered to an image and rebuilt: the words become text boxes and the cards, bars and lines become separate shapes, so you can retype and move them. Clean scans of slides, reports and diagrams work best. Heavy skew, shadows, folds or phone photos of paper come back worse, and a page can need some tidying.

My PDF already has selectable text. Should I still use this?

Probably not. Here every page is turned into a picture first and then rebuilt, so real text is read from the picture instead of being copied from the file. A regular PDF-to-PowerPoint converter that reads the text layer directly may keep your fonts and layout better. Use this page when the text is part of the picture, as in a scan, a screenshot saved as PDF or a slide deck exported as images.

How much does it cost to convert a PDF to PPT?

2 credits for each delivered page, so a 10-page PDF is 20 credits and a 30-page PDF is 60. No subscription is needed, but you must be logged in with enough credits. Only pages that are delivered are charged; a page that fails costs nothing and can be retried on its own for 2 credits. A 10-page PDF can need more credits than the smallest credit pack holds, so check the pack sizes under Pricing first.

Is there a free preview for a PDF?

No. A PDF has no free preview and no $2.99 single option; it is charged per delivered page. To try the quality first, save one page as a PNG or JPG and upload that image: watermarked previews are free with any account (up to 3 a day), and you can unlock the editable file for $2.99 or 2 credits.

How many pages can I convert?

Up to 30 pages in one run, as one .pptx with a slide per page. This is a website feature; the API takes one image per request.

What if my PDF has more than 30 pages?

When you upload a PDF over 30 pages, a dialog asks which pages to convert. Choose a range, or take the first 30 pages in one click, then run the next range as a separate conversion. The range picker only appears for PDFs over 30 pages.

Is the text editable in PowerPoint afterwards?

Mostly. Headings, labels and paragraphs come back as text boxes you can click and retype, though a paragraph can be split into one box per line. Some fine or decorative lettering can stay as shapes, and fonts are replaced with similar ones, so line breaks and spacing can shift.

Will the slides look exactly like my PDF pages?

No. It is a rebuild, not a copy. Fonts are substituted, small lettering can be missed, gradients and soft shadows can flatten, and thin lines can come out lighter. Charts and tables come back as shapes and text, not as native PowerPoint charts or tables with data behind them. We never promise a perfect or pixel-for-pixel result, so check every slide before you share it.

Does it make my scanned PDF searchable or run OCR to a text file?

No. The output is a .pptx whose slides contain the text as text boxes; it is not a searchable PDF or a plain-text export. If you only need to search or copy text from a scan, an OCR tool does that job directly.

What if my PDF pages have different sizes?

Every slide takes the size of the first page. A later page with different proportions is placed with white borders around it, so put your usual page size first.

Is my PDF uploaded, and how long is it kept?

Your browser renders each page to an image, and only those page images are uploaded to our conversion service and the service providers it uses; the PDF file itself is not. The images and the result are kept on our servers for 7 days, then deleted automatically, or sooner if you delete them. They are not made public. See the Privacy page for details.

Can I upload a password-protected PDF?

No. The uploader asks you to unlock it first, because your browser has to open the file to split it into pages. Remove the password in your PDF app, save a copy, and upload that.

Is the result a .ppt or a .pptx?

You get a .pptx, the current PowerPoint format. It opens in PowerPoint and in other apps that read .pptx, such as Google Slides and Keynote, though how closely another app displays it depends on the app. Unraster does not produce the older .ppt format.
