PPTX Tools

Nine tools for getting content out of a deck and building one up — grouped by what you are trying to do. Everything runs in your browser, free, with no sign-up.

Get content out of a deck

Pull the words, the slides, or the whole presentation into another format.

Build and tidy a deck

Bring material in, and get the file ready to send.

Start here

Which tool do you need?

A slide is a canvas; a document is a flow; an image is pixels. Most confusion here comes from asking one format to behave like another. These are the choices people get wrong most often.

You want the design, not the words

A diagram built from twelve boxes and eleven arrows is not stored as a diagram — it is twenty-three separate objects. To capture it as designed, render the whole slide with PPTX to JPG or PPTX to PNG. Pulling images out of the file gives you the components, which is rarely what anyone wants.

You want the words, not the design

PPTX to Word gives you an editable document with a page per slide. PPTX to TXT gives plain text — better for word counts when quoting a translator, or for diffing two versions of a deck, which PowerPoint itself cannot do.

The text comes out in a strange order

PowerPoint stores shapes in the order they were created, not the order you read them. A two-column slide can extract scrambled. Check Home → Arrange → Selection Pane in PowerPoint — the order listed there is the order you will get, and you can drag items to fix it.

Your deck is too big to email

The weight is almost always in ppt/media — full-resolution photos dragged small, and cropped images whose hidden parts PowerPoint keeps. Compress PPTX works on those. A text-and-chart deck will barely shrink, because there is little to remove.

Before you send it externally

Speaker notes and hidden slides travel inside the file and are easy to forget. Extract the text to see everything in one scrollable list, or use Clear Notes to strip the notes outright.

Just sharing it, not editing it

PPTX to PDF is more dependable than converting to a web page. Fonts are embedded, layout is fixed, and every device opens it — whereas HTML depends on fonts the reader happens to have.

Why ButDoc

Presentations are containers, not documents

A .pptx is a ZIP archive: one XML file per slide, a folder of images, speaker notes stored separately again. That structure explains almost everything about converting a deck — why text extraction is reliable, why images are the reason files balloon, and why the reading order sometimes surprises you.

Every tool here works with that structure rather than around it, and each tool page sets out what carries across and what does not. Slides position content on a landscape canvas; documents flow it down a page; images flatten it entirely. Something is always traded, and it is better to know which.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need PowerPoint installed?
No. Everything runs in your browser, and the files produced open in PowerPoint, Google Slides, Keynote and LibreOffice Impress.
Will my animations and transitions survive?
Not in conversions to other formats. PowerPoint animations use a proprietary timeline model with no equivalent in a document, an image or a web page. If a build was revealing points one at a time, split it into separate slides first so each stage becomes its own step.
Some text on my slides was not extracted. Why?
It is almost certainly part of an image rather than a text box — a pasted screenshot or an exported chart. Click it in PowerPoint: if you cannot place a cursor in the text, it is pixels and needs OCR rather than conversion.
Are speaker notes included?
Notes are stored in a separate part of the file from slide content, so it varies by tool — each page says which. It is worth checking before sharing a deck externally, since notes often contain internal comments people forget are there.
Do I need an account?
No sign-up, no email, nothing to install. Because there is no account there is also no stored file history, so keep your own copies.
What happens to the files I upload?
They travel over an encrypted connection, are processed automatically without human review, and are permanently deleted from our servers within 60 minutes. There is no backup. Full detail is in our Privacy Policy.
