Convert PPT to Markdown

Convert a PPT presentation to clean Markdown in seconds. The file is read directly in your browser, so nothing is uploaded and the result is ready almost instantly.

How to convert PPT to Markdown

This converter reads the structure of the PPT presentation, including headings, paragraphs, lists, tables and links, and writes it out as clean Markdown. It is ideal for documentation, wikis, static sites, note apps and AI or LLM pipelines. The engine runs locally with WebAssembly, which means large files convert quickly and privately without waiting for an upload.

Step 1: Choose your PPT file
Drag and drop a .ppt, .pps, .pot file onto the converter or click to browse. It works on desktop, tablet and phone.
Step 2: Let it convert
The PPT is parsed on your device and turned into Markdown automatically; there are no settings to worry about.
Step 3: Download the Markdown
Save each result individually, or download everything as a single ZIP when you convert several files.

About the formats

What is PPT?

PPT is the binary presentation format used by Microsoft PowerPoint up to version 2003. A single file holds slides, text, images, charts, speaker notes and transitions. Related extensions are .pps, which opens directly as a slideshow, and .pot, used for templates. Since PowerPoint 2007 the default is the XML-based PPTX.

Use PPT only for compatibility with very old versions of PowerPoint or with legacy systems that require it. For new presentations, PPTX is lighter and more reliable, and PDF is the safest way to share slides that nobody needs to edit.

What is Markdown?

Markdown is a lightweight markup language that lets you write formatted documents in plain text using simple symbols. The same file reads clearly as text and renders as styled HTML, making it popular for documentation, README files and notes. It is also widely used to feed clean text to large language models.

Use Markdown for content that should be readable as plain text but publishable with formatting, README files, documentation, wikis, notes and posts. Write it anywhere, and it stays usable forever because the source is plain text.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is PPT to Markdown conversion free?

Yes. It is free, with no watermark, signup or email required. Local conversions have no artificial file-size or daily cap; the practical limit is your device.

Will the Markdown keep the formatting of my PPT?

The structure is kept: headings, lists, tables, links and bold or italic text. Visual details such as fonts, colours, page margins and exact positioning are not part of Markdown.

What happens to images inside the PPT?

Images are not embedded in the output; the converter focuses on the text and its structure. If you need the images, export them from the original application.

Is it safe to convert ppt to markdown here?

Yes. The work happens on your own device with WebAssembly and browser APIs, so the file is not uploaded at all. You can even disconnect from the internet once the page has loaded.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Everything runs in a modern browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari) on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. There is no app, plugin or account.
