Save powerpoint files as pdfs.

If you want to share your presentation with someone that doesn’t have Microsoft PowerPoint, you can save and share the file as a PDF. You can also adjust the way the slides appear on the PDF. Here's how.

When you save a PowerPoint presentation as a PDF file, the layout, format, fonts, and images of the presentation will remain the same. This lets users without access to PowerPoint view the presentation (though they are unable to edit it).

First, open the PowerPoint presentation to be saved as a PDF. Select the “File” tab and then click the “Export” option in the left-hand pane.

You’ll then be at the “Create PDF/XPS Document” tab. Here, select “Create PDF/XPS.”

Window’s File Explorer will appear. Select the location in which you would like to save your new file. You can see that the “Save as type” is now PDF. You can also rename the file as you like.

You may also notice the “Optimize for” options at the bottom-right of the window:

• Standard: This is a high-quality version of the document, ideal for when you only plan to publish it online or print it out.
• Minimum Size: This is a lower-quality version of the document. It’s also suitable for publishing online, but ideal for when you need to send the document as an email attachment, as it reduces the size of the file .

You can also set specific options to adjust how the file appears. To do this, click the “Options” button underneath.

The “Options” window will appear, and you have several options to choose from. Here’s a brief overview of what’s available:

• Range: Export all slides, the current slide, or a selection of slides from your presentation.
• Publish Options: You can choose to export only comments, handouts, or outline view here by selecting the “Publish What” option. You’re also able to dictate how many slides appear on each page, flip the slides horizontally or vertically, or give the slides a frame.
• Include Non-printing Information: Include document properties or structure tags.
• PDF Options: Make the document PDF/_A compliant.

Once you’ve adjusted the options, click “OK.”

Finally, back at Windows File Explorer, click “Publish.”

Your PDF is now ready to share.

Defining initial view as Full Screen mode

Full Screen mode is a property that you can set for PDFs used for presentations. In Full Screen mode, PDF pages fill the entire screen, and the Acrobat menu bar, toolbar, and window controls are hidden. You can also set other opening views, so that your documents or collections of documents open to a consistent view. In either case, you can add page transitions to enhance the visual effect as the viewer pages through the document.

To control how you navigate a PDF (for example, advancing pages automatically), use the options in the Full Screen panel of the Preferences dialog box. These preferences are specific to a system—not a PDF document—and affect all PDFs that you open on that system. Therefore, if you set up your presentation on a system you control, you can control these preferences.

Define an initial view

When a user opens your PDF document or PDF Portfolio , they see the initial view of the PDF. You can set the initial view to the magnification level, page, and page layout that you want. If your PDF is a presentation, you can set the initial view to Full Screen mode. In Acrobat Pro you can create Action Wizards to change default settings for multiple documents.

After you define the initial view of the PDF, you can add page transitions to selected pages or the entire document.

Acrobat supports page transitions and bullet fly-ins from PowerPoint.

Define the initial view

• Choose File > Properties.
• In the Document Properties dialog box, click Initial View.

Select the options that you want, and then select OK. Save and reopen the file to see the effects.

Define the initial view as Full Screen mode

When setting the initial view of a PDF to Full Screen mode, you must define how the document opens.

• Choose File > Properties.
• In the Document Properties dialog box, select Initial View.

Choose Page Only from the Navigation Tab menu.

Choose Single Page from the Page Layout menu.

Set Open To Page to the page on which you want to start the presentation.

Users can exit Full Screen mode by pressing Esc if their preferences are set this way. However, in Full Screen mode, users cannot apply commands and select tools unless they know the keyboard shortcuts. You may want to set up page actions in the document to provide this functionality.

Initial View options for document properties

The Initial View options in the Document Properties are organized into three areas: Layout And Magnification , Window Options, and User Interface Options .

Layout And Magnification

Determines the appearance of the document.

Two conditions can affect page layout and magnification. 1) Someone has already set an individual PDF to a different initial view in File > Properties. 2) You have the option Restore Last View Settings When Reopening Documents selected in Edit > Preferences > Document category.

Navigation Tab

Determines which panels are displayed in the navigation pane.

Page Layout

Determines how document pages are arranged.

Magnification

Sets the zoom level for the document after it's opened. Default uses the magnification set by the user.

Open To Page

Specifies the page that appears when the document opens.

Setting Default for the Magnification and Page Layout options uses the individual users’ settings in the Page Display preferences.

Window Options

Determine how the window adjusts in the screen area when a user opens the document. These options apply to the document window itself in relationship to the screen area of the user’s monitor.

Resize Window To Initial Page

Adjusts the document window to fit snugly around the opening page, according to the options that you selected under Document Options.

Center Window On Screen

Positions the window in the center of the screen area.

Open In Full Screen Mode

Maximizes the document window and displays the document without the menu bar, toolbar, or window controls.

Show File Name

Shows the filename in the title bar of the window.

Show Document Title

Shows the document title in the title bar of the window. The document title is obtained from the Description panel of the Document Properties dialog box.

User Interface Options

Determine which parts of the interface—the menu bar, the toolbars, and the window controls—are hidden.

 If you hide the menu bar and toolbars, users cannot apply commands and select tools unless they know the keyboard shortcuts. You may want to set up page actions that temporarily hide interface controls while the page is in view. (See Add actions with page thumbnails .)

Add page transitions

You can create an interesting effect that occurs each time a page advances by using page transitions.

You can also set page transitions for a group of documents using the Actions wizard in Acrobat Pro .

Choose Tools > Organize Pages > More > Page Transitions.

In the Set Transitions dialog, choose a transition effect from the Transition menu. These transition effects are the same as effects set in the Full Screen preferences.

• Choose the direction in which the transition effect occurs. Available options depend on the transition.
• Choose the speed of the transition effect.
• Select Auto Flip, and enter the number of seconds between automatic page turning. If you do not select this option, the user turns pages using keyboard commands or the mouse.

Select the Page Range that you want to apply transitions to.

If users select Ignore All Transitions in the Full Screen preferences, they do not see the page transitions.

The 7 Best Tools to Present and Share Your PDF Files Online

PowerPoint is seen to be boring. Presenting with PDF files can be a quicker and easier alternative. Here are seven selected tools to present & share your PDF files online.

PDF files are the standard format when sharing documents, and it's easy to see why. They open on all operating systems, they can be password-protected, copy-and-edit-restricted, and you can even prevent others from printing them out.

PDF files aren’t affected by viruses, so you can pretty much always open them with confidence. A PDF file opens almost instantly, you can easily embed videos, as well as pictures, sound files, and other media. Take that, Microsoft Word!

As with any other type of file, a PDF is only as good as your ability to share it with others. Here are our top picks for the best free PDF hosting out there.

PDF Hosting for Beginners: The Run-Down

Many websites are now able to host PDFs online. The PDF file remains open inside of a widget; you can scroll through it right in your browser. From Supreme Court rulings to America's favorite recipe for chocolate cake, you're likely to find all kinds of PDFs after a quick Google search.

Other tools enable you to easily convert other files to the PDF format. For example, if you have a PowerPoint presentation, you can export it as a PDF to share. You might even end up with better-looking slides in the process.

Which PDF-hosting sites are the best? Which one should you be using? Read on to see some that you might already know and use, along with a few new ones, as well.

We'll start off with perhaps the most well-known way to host a PDF online. Scribd is now positioning itself as a monthly subscription service for eBooks and audiobooks—in fact, you can't even crack in without forfeiting your credit card information first.

Thankfully, you're still able to search Scribd's archives without paying. If you use the search function with a documents-only filter enabled, you'll see many PDFs hosted here. You can search within these documents, share them on social media, rate them, and even download them for yourself in some cases.

Scribd Features

• Documents can be public or private.
• You can upload multiple files at once.
• You can upload revisions smoothly.
• You can upload cloud-based files from Google Docs, Facebook, and Gmail, too.
• You can set reader permissions and decide if your content can be copy and pasted from the site, if people can leave comments and reviews on your work, and even whether or not your PDF is available to download.
• If your document is in another format, you can convert it to PDF.
• You can embed a PDF file (Either yours or someone else's) on your website.
• Scribd makes your content readable on iPhone, iPad, Android, and other mobile devices.

2. Google Drive

Google Drive is absolutely fantastic , and one really cool feature is the ability to upload documents and then re-download them as a PDF file.

Google Drive can help you publish your PDF documents publicly, which can then be shared to a wider audience. You can also embed the file on your website; access can be revoked at any time.

Google Drive Features

• Convert multiple formats into a PDF file.
• Publish your documents to the public.
• Revoke access at any time.
• Embed a PDF file on your website or blog.
• Edit the original file and see the published file updated automatically.
• Control who can edit the PDF file.

Box is so underrated , probably due to its well-known rivals, Dropbox, OneDrive, and Google Drive. If you can find it in your heart to give Box a shot, however, you might be pleasantly surprised. One of these features is the ability to embed PDF files inside of a widget, just like these other options.

Box Features

• Choose your own custom URL for the widget.
• Customize the look of the widget's size and color.
• Protect the shared link with a password .
• Set a date for the link to expire.
• Enable or disable download permission for your documents.

Beamium offers a drag-and-drop interface; uploading PDF files is quick and easy. It works as a great virtual alternative to PowerPoint. You upload your slides as a single PDF file and are then given a unique presentation code. You can send this URL to everyone that you would like to share your PDF presentations with.

Attendees then go to the Beamium site, enter the code, and see what you've uploaded in real-time as you present it. You shuffle from slide to slide from home, and your invited viewers watch right along, just like a real PDF presentation. You can even activate a small, digital laser pointer, college professor-style.

Beamium Features

• Simple and appealing service.
• Your files stay hosted on the Beamium site for 14 days if you register for an account.
• Browser-based, cross-platform, and no software to download.
• Presentations are displayed in full-screen.

5. Publitas

If you're looking for a stable way to monetize your publication, a Dutch company called Publitas aims to serve. It's a site that will host your PDF publications and allow customers to buy them through an online checkout system. You can also upload PDFs that are free to read and download as well.

There are different pricing tiers—a free plan, and four paid plans. The free plan is extremely generous, though, so you may never need to upgrade.

Publitas Features

• Extremely intuitive to use.
• Touch-optimized for mobile devices and tablets.
• You can add links to other parts of the publication, as well as additional media.

6. F lipsnack

Flipsnack is a service that lets you create an online flip book out of your PDF. You can edit the pages of your file with an incredibly diverse suite of design tools as well.

If you need a template, you'll be covered here. Their interface gives you many layers to work with; designing an interactive e-com catalog, for example, is super easy. You can create clickable buttons, image pop-ups, and even conditional discounts.

Flipsnack Features

• A Wix-like design studio lets you build each layout from scratch.
• Pages can be rearranged and redesigned after being uploaded.
• Easy-to-customize templates.
• Built-in image editor.
• Media integration—audio, video, hyperlinks, and even forms.

Slides is yet another site for creating slide presentations from uploaded PDF documents. Each page will become a slide. You can then add text, more images, tables, graphs, and other media.

Each file uploaded is public, unless you pay for the Pro plan. A small luxury, but, in some cases, well-worth the premium.

Slides Features

• No need to download anything. Everything is done in-browser.
• Optimized for mobile devices and tablets.
• Slides can be embedded on the web.
• You can download slides to view offline.
• Presentations can be remote-controlled by a touch-enabled device.

Host a PDF Online for Your Next Big Presentation

Putting on the show of a lifetime doesn't have to be a pain. These services make sharing PDFs online easy and convenient. Some of them even rival PowerPoint in their ability to create a live presentation out of your PDF.

In our digital world of remote offices and classrooms, the ability to share PDFs effectively is unquestionable. If you're working on a budget, any of the above will help you get your files where they need to go, totally free.

How to Present a PDF like a PowerPoint

With Adobe Acrobat Reader, you can present a regular PDF in similar fashion to a PowerPoint presentation.

Format presentation

• Under the "Edit" tab, click "Preferences".
• Under the "Full Screen Navigation" Section, you can loop the presentation by checking the "Loop after last page" option.
• You can also set the "speed" of the presentation with the "Advance every [ ] seconds" option.
• It is recommended to leave the "Escape key exits" option checked in order to quit the presentation early.

Present PDF

• Under the "View" tab, click "Full Screen Mode". This will start the presentation.
• In order to end the presentation before it's finished, press Esc

Don’t delay and download now—make creative slides for presentations about business, education, technology, and more!

How to Make Presentation Materials in PDF

As an article from Chron (a business-focused resource) explains, using digital slides in a presentation provides the audience with clear concise visuals while also conveying your passion for the given subject matter. For this reason, creating professional and engaging content is crucial—whether it’s about business training, project funding, or education improvement.

If you need easily shareable materials for a presentation, then creating them as PDF files is always a good option. So, read our tips (below) on how to prepare your content that’s fit for distribution!

1. Create Simple Yet Striking Visuals

Before you can make your content, you need an application that lets you add text, images, charts, and graphics. Some good examples are Google Docs and Apple Pages .

When it comes to a presentation’s visuals, it can easily get oversaturated with details. With too much to take in, audiences will have a harder time following along. Keep things simple when incorporating illustrations, logos, backgrounds, etc.

2. Use Colors to Make Information Pop

Visuals are imperative for good presentation content. Part of this involves making key details stand out in your images. To do so, incorporate colors that contrast yet still complement each other. For example, in a photo dominated by subdued grey tones, use a bright blue or red to outline important elements.

3. Incorporate Charts to Summarize Data

If your presentation involves explaining numerical values and other intricate details, then using charts is always sound advice. With professionally prepared infographics, your audience can easily interpret your data with just a few glances.

4. Be Creative With Your Writing

Written content is also critical to your presentation. Keep your dialogue concise and quick to digest, making your points easy to understand. And adding a few creative lines helps retain your audience’s attention and interest, like “Keep the College Mind Alive” or “Business and Technology as One.”

And there you have our tips! Now you have a better grasp on presentation design for a meeting or conference!

Include images that are relevant to your presentation

When creating a presentation, Copilot will try to incorporate the images in your Word document. If you have images that you would like to be brought over to your presentation, be sure to include them in your Word document.

Start with your organization’s template

How to print PowerPoint as a PDF with notes.

Before printing your PowerPoint as a PDF, you have to save it as one. The first way to save your PowerPoint as a PDF with notes is to use the right save options. Once you’re ready to export your presentation, follow these steps:

It’s important to stay focused on your audience while you’re presenting. But you don’t want to get distracted and miss giving important details either. You can connect with your audience and make sure you cover everything by printing out the speaker notes you’ve typed on your slides.

Hand the printed papers out in advance and let your listeners read along with you. Or use them for yourself to keep your presentation on track. Either way, the process is simple with these few steps:

• Select Print from the File menu.
• Select the correct printer.
• In Settings, select Notes Pages from the first dropdown menu under Slides. This will display one slide and its accompanying notes on each printed page.

• Let the software do its magic.
