Recently I was asked if there is a way to convert a PDF to a Google Slide. In answer to this question yes there is a work-around to complete this task. First step is to convert the PDF to a PowerPoint by using one of the following website converters:
- Small PDF: Convert PDF to PPT Converter
- Free PDF Convert
- Nitro: PDF to PPT Converter
- I love PDF: PDF to PPT Converter
Second Step is to upload the PDF to Google Drive
- Open Google Drive
- Select New Button
- Click File Upload
- Select the PowerPoint
- Right Click the PPT or PPTX from within Google Drive
- Select “Open With”
- Click “Google Slides”
PRESTO! PDF is Converted to Google Slides
This comes in handy for those sites such as Teachers pay Teachers who share themes and activities as PDF’s and PowerPoints.
Dude, thank you so much!!!! I went to the IT department to have them help me with this and they couldn’t figure it out. So helpful!

Hello Someone, It seems with the newest updates this is no longer possible to do. I suggest sending feedback via Google Drive: Go to drive.google.com.
