▣ FILE CONVERSION

Convert Presentations to PDF API

Hosted on ApyHub

What it does

Presentation to PDF converts PowerPoint and OpenDocument presentation files into PDF output. Send a .ppt, .pptx, or .odp file, or pass a base64-encoded presentation or remote presentation URL, and get back either a PDF download or a signed PDF link.

Use Presentation to PDF when you need a presentation rendered for sharing, archiving, review, or downstream document workflows. The service supports both file uploads and URL/base64 inputs, so you can convert content from a browser form, a storage bucket, or an upstream API without changing your pipeline.

Each conversion accepts an optional landscape boolean, which defaults to true, to control the output orientation. For file uploads, you can also set an output query value when requesting a download. The response is either binary PDF data or an object containing a data URI, depending on the endpoint you call.

If you need to standardize slide decks before sending them to customers, storing them in a document system, or feeding them into a review process, Presentation to PDF gives you a simple way to turn presentation formats into PDFs.
