# PowerPoint to Animated GIF

> Turn a deck into one looping animated GIF, a few seconds per slide.

PowerPoint to Animated GIF reads the presentation's shape tree in your browser — every text box with its position, size, weight and indent level, plus the speaker notes — and renders each slide and encodes them as one looping animation. The file is never uploaded.

## FAQ

### Why can I not use a .ppt file?

The old binary .ppt format has no browser-readable structure. .pptx has been the default since PowerPoint 2007 and is a ZIP of XML, which is what makes local conversion possible. Open it and save as .pptx first.

### The rendered slides look plainer than my deck.

Text, position, size, weight, indentation and alignment are reproduced. Theme backgrounds, gradients, embedded pictures, charts and SmartArt are not — rendering those faithfully means reimplementing PowerPoint's drawing model. If the visual design is the point, export from PowerPoint itself; if the content is, this is both faster and private.
