Steps to convert text to PowerPoint

Follow the four steps below to convert any text into a PowerPoint presentation:

1. Start a new presentation with Plus AI.
   Open Plus AI in PowerPoint, then click the “New presentation with Plus AI” button.
2. Click on “Upload a file.”
   Even if you only have text instead of a document file (for example, in a Google Doc), you can insert it here. You can either upload a file or click Paste text to copy-paste raw text.
3. Select a slide template (optional).
   Click the Change template button and choose from the available layouts.
4. Click “Generate Presentation.”
   Once generated, you can edit the deck in PowerPoint or continue using the AI tools to insert new slides, rewrite content, or change layouts.

How to convert text in a Word or PDF document to PowerPoint

If your text is in a Microsoft Word or PDF document, you have two options:

• Upload the document into Plus AI.
  Start a new presentation with Plus AI, click Upload a File, choose your Word or PDF document (you can also upload spreadsheets, EPUB drafts, or .txt files), pick a template, then hit Generate Presentation.
  

• Copy-paste the document into Plus AI.
  If you’re on a public computer or don’t want to upload files, simply copy and paste your text into the interface and follow the same steps.

How to edit layouts to match slide content

A tool like Plus AI will strive to match each slide’s layout to its content, but you should review every slide to ensure the layout makes sense. For example, a two-section layout works great for outlining pros and cons, while a short, bold statement slide is ideal for your unique value proposition.

To change slide layouts:

1. Open the “Edit with Plus AI” menu.
   

1. Select the slide you want to remix.
   

1. Switch to the “Remix” tab and choose a new layout from the dropdown.
2. Review the updated format and make further tweaks if necessary.
   

FAQs on converting text to PowerPoint

Q: Can I convert text to PPT for free?
Yes. Plus AI is an add-in for PowerPoint that offers a 7-day free trial. You can create a slide deck from your text for free during the trial, then decide whether to subscribe.

Q: Can ChatGPT convert text to PPT?
No. ChatGPT can break your text into slide-sized sections, but it can’t generate a .pptx file. (You could generate VBA code to run in PowerPoint, but that’s more complex and yields inferior results.)

That said, other AI tools—like Plus AI—can create a full slide deck from text. Copy-paste your text, choose a template, and you’ll have a ready-to-edit presentation in under a minute.

Q: Can ChatGPT summarize a PPT presentation?
Yes. ChatGPT can summarize slide content, but its file-upload support can be inconsistent. For best results, copy-paste the text from your slides into the chat along with a clear prompt.
