Convert PowerPoint slides to a PDF
With PowerPoint, you have an excellent presentation software that you can use with a little skill and creativity to convey simple and vivid complex content.
Now, you might want to make the presentation accessible where PowerPoint may not be used.
Of course, the PDF format is an obvious choice.
You also have the option to port and adapt only certain slides instead of the complete PowerPoint presentation as so-called “hands out” into a PDF so that participants can easily print them out.
Read in our article how it is done with PowerPoint 2016.
