Convert Presentations to PDF API

What it does

Presentation to PDF converts PowerPoint and OpenDocument presentation files into PDF, either as a direct download or as a signed link. Send a .ppt, .pptx, or .odp file, or pass a remote file URL or base64-encoded presentation bytes, and get the PDF back.

Use POST /file/download, POST /url/download, or POST /base64/download when you want the converted PDF as binary output. Use the matching /link endpoints when you prefer a URI in the data field. Each conversion accepts an optional landscape query parameter, which defaults to true.

This is a practical fit for document workflows that need consistent PDF output from presentation sources: archive slide decks, generate downloadable exports, or process uploaded files from a web app without handling the conversion yourself. The service keeps the input surface small and the response format predictable, which makes it easy to slot into file pipelines.
