.PPTX Format

This is the most common format for PowerPoint presentations. It is compatible with both Microsoft PowerPoint and Apple’s native presentation software, Keynote. This format supports a wide range of features including animations, transitions, and multimedia embeds.

.PDF Format

Converting your PowerPoint presentation to a PDF format can be beneficial if you want to ensure that your presentation’s formatting remains consistent across all devices. PDFs are universal and can be opened on any device that has a PDF reader, including all Apple devices.

Keynote Format (.KEY)

If all participants in the group investor presentation are using Apple devices, you can consider using Apple’s Keynote software to create your presentation. Keynote presentations (.KEY) can have advanced animations and transitions that are unique to the software, offering a smooth and visually appealing presentation experience.

How to Convert PowerPoint to Apple-Compatible Formats

Converting your presentation to an Apple-compatible format is straightforward. Here are the steps to convert your presentation to a .PPTX or .PDF file:

  1. Open your presentation in Microsoft PowerPoint.
  2. Go to the ‘File’ menu and select ‘Save As’.
  3. Choose the location where you want to save the file.
  4. In the ‘Save as type’ dropdown menu, select ‘PowerPoint Presentation (.pptx)’ or ‘PDF (*.pdf)’.
  5. Click ‘Save’.

To convert your PowerPoint presentation to a Keynote file, you first need to open the .pptx file in Keynote and then save it as a .key file.
