PowerPoint to Markdown
Convert PPTX, PPT and ODP presentations into Markdown with one section per slide. Bullets keep their hierarchy, tables and charts become Markdown tables, and speaker notes are included.
- PPTX, PPT, ODP
- Speaker notes
- Charts as tables
- SmartArt text
Web pages are reduced to the main article: menus, cookie banners and footers are removed. Public Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drive, Dropbox and GitHub links work too.
What the PowerPoint converter keeps
- Slide structure: every slide becomes
## Slide N: Title, in order. - Bullets: with their indentation levels.
- Tables: as Markdown tables.
- Charts: as data tables with categories and series, so the numbers behind a chart are readable.
- SmartArt: text from SmartArt diagrams.
- Speaker notes: under a Notes heading on each slide (the API can switch them off).
