How to convert PDF to PowerPoint
Have you ever had to copy, partially or completely, the pages of a PDF file into a PowerPoint presentation? If you are here right now and are reading these lines, I bet yes. So no more chatter and let’s move on to the content of the guide.
Listed below are some online converters that allow you to convert PDF to PowerPoint without going through tedious recordings and without installing any software on your PC. All free. In short, all you have to do is connect to them, select the documents to be transformed into PowerPoint presentations and wait for your slides to be automatically “taken out”.
Within a few seconds, you will get presentations in PPT or PPTX format (the presentation format introduced by Microsoft with Office 2007) that can be reproduced and edited with any software suitable for the purpose: not only PowerPoint but also LibreOffice, Apple’s Keynote, and all the others programs capable of working with presentations made in Office. So, what are you waiting for to start?

If you need to convert multiple documents at the same time, I highly recommend you try Online2PDF. It is a very advanced online service that allows you to transform up to 20 PDFs to PowerPoint at the same time. It has an upload limit of 100MB and 50 pages, allows you to select a range of pages to convert (instead of converting documents in full) and to merge multiple PDFs into the same presentation.
To use it, linked to its home page and drag the PDF files to be converted into PPT or PPTX (you can choose both formats) in the red box at the bottom. Then expand the drop-down menu Convert to choose the desired output format from PowerPoint 2003 or older (* .ppt) And PowerPoint 2007–2013 (* .pptx) and presses the button Convert to start converting the files (which will be automatically downloaded to your PC).
To limit the conversion to a specific page range, click on the icon scissors which is on the right. By expanding the drop-down menu Mode instead you can choose whether to convert each PDF as a presentation in its own right (Convert files separately) or whether to merge all PDFs into one PowerPoint presentation (Merge files).

Don’t want to turn your PDFs into PDF presentations? Rather, would you like to be able to include a PDF within a PDF presentation and recall it as a separate file? Nothing easier.
If you are using a recent version of Microsoft Office (from 2007 onwards) you can do this by going to the tab inserted in the program toolbar and clicking on the button Object.
If you use LibreOffice or OpenOffice (the most popular free alternatives to Microsoft Office) you can get a similar result by starting the software Impress by going to the menu Insert> Object> OLE Object and selecting the item Create from file from the window that opens.
