What changes

  • PowerPoint PPT slides are laid out by our office engine and rendered to JPEG by our image engine, one image per slide; decks with several slides download as a ZIP.
  • EXIF, color profiles, layers, animation frames, and camera metadata may be stripped unless the destination requires minimal metadata.
  • Transparency stays for PNG and WebP but is filled with the selected background for JPEG, BMP, PDF, and other opaque targets.
  • Fonts missing on the server are substituted before rendering, so text can wrap differently from the original file.
  • SVG input is rasterized at the requested dimensions or DPI, producing pixels rather than editable vector paths.
  • Server-only codecs or PDF rendering are used when browsers cannot safely handle the pair.

PowerPoint PPT to JPEG by API or MCP

The HTTP API and the MCP server run the exact engine this page uses (Office engine → Image engine); the response carries the same warnings the web converter shows. Check support first with GET /api/v1/pairs?from=ppt&to=jpg.

curl
curl -X POST https://filetypeconverters.com/api/v1/convert \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FTC_API_KEY" \
  -F "file=@input.ppt" -F "from=ppt" -F "to=jpg" \
  -F 'options={"width":0}' \
  --output output.jpg
