Yes, (ilovepdf.com/pdf_to_powerpoint) generally preserves the formatting. Important to note: accuracy depends greatly on the complexity of the original PDF. Conversion works well for simple PDFs, but complex layouts, special fonts, intricate tables, or many images may lead to visual changes.
Yes, usually it works. For scanned documents, the text is recognized by OCR and transferred as best as possible into editable PowerPoint elements. The better the scan quality, the more accurate the result.
PDF-to-PowerPoint conversion may fail if the PDFs contain complex layouts, images, fonts, tables, or scanned text. In such cases, the conversion software may not interpret the content correctly. Problems can also arise due to missing OCR capabilities for scanned PDFs or because of the complexity of the original PDF, which complicates the conversion.

1. Complex formatting:
PDF files with many images, tables, footnotes, or endnotes often cannot be precisely converted to the PowerPoint format. Font effects like shadows can also cause issues.
2. Scanned PDFs:
If a PDF file was scanned, the text is saved as an image and not as editable text. Without an OCR function (Optical Character Recognition), PowerPoint cannot recognize and convert the text, resulting in only an image visible in the PowerPoint presentation.
3. Font and codec issues:
If the PDF uses embedded fonts or specific codecs that the converter does not support, the conversion can fail or result in incorrect characters.
4. Different storage structures:
The underlying structure of PDF and PowerPoint presentations can be different, which can cause layout and text flow errors during conversion.
5. Write protection or password:
If a PDF file is password-protected or write-protected, it cannot be edited. Some programs may block conversion until the password is entered or protection is removed.
