How to convert PPS to PPT
- Add your .PPS file - drop it in the box above or click to browse.
- Convert it to .PPT in a few seconds.
- Download your new .PPT file.
What to expect
- PPS and PPT are the same OLE2 binary file - renaming the extension is not a workaround, it is the designed behavior.
- If you plan to keep editing the file, save as
.pptxinstead; the old.pptbinary format has limited support in modern collaboration tools. - Like
.pptfiles, a.ppscan contain VBA macros - be cautious about enabling them if the file came from an unknown source.
