Org to POTX Converter
Processing entirely on your device — large files may take a moment.
Emacs Org mode and PowerPoint Template (OOXML) exist for different jobs: Org mode is the Emacs ecosystem's plain-text format for notes, TODO lists, authoring and literate programming — asterisk headings, TODO keywords, #+begin_src blocks. Everything lives in one future-proof text file. Convert POTX templates to PDF or PNG to preview the design.
This converter runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly — your files never leave your device, nothing is uploaded, and there are no watermarks, sign-ups or queues. Drop in several files at once to convert them as a batch.

About the Org format
Org mode is the Emacs universe's answer to "what if everything was plain text": one .org file holds your outlines, TODO states with agendas, deadlines, tables and even runnable code blocks. Twenty years of personal knowledge management workflows are built on its asterisk-and-keyword syntax.
Its reach outside Emacs used to be the pain — now a converter bridges it. Markdown collaborators get .md, managers get .docx, readers get .epub, and LaTeX journals get .tex, all with the outline hierarchy intact. Bringing Markdown back into Org is equally one click.
+Strengths

- ✓Babel code blocks make documents executable
!Limitations
- −Full features require Emacs itself
- −Unfamiliar syntax for mainstream collaborators
- −No native mobile editing story
About the POTX format
PPTX is the modern PowerPoint deck: a zip of XML parts describing slides, shapes, text runs and media. That structure is exactly why text can be extracted faithfully without PowerPoint — every word on every slide is in the package, with its slide number.
One honest limit: extraction is about words, not looks. Slide layouts, backgrounds, animations and images do not survive a text export — the output is the content of the deck, not a picture of it.
+Strengths
- ✓Text and slide order preserved exactly
- ✓Opens in PowerPoint, Keynote, WPS, Slides
- ✓Zip+XML structure is machine-friendly
!Limitations
- −Text export loses layout and visuals
- −Charts and tables flatten to text
Why convert Org to POTX?
Converting makes sense where the strengths of POTX meet what Org cannot give you. Text and slide order preserved exactly Meanwhile Full features require Emacs itself One pass through the converter above puts your file on the right side of that trade-off.
Frequently asked questions
Is this Org to POTX converter really free?
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily conversion limits. The site is supported by advertising.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so your files never leave your device — that is what makes it instant and private.
Does it work on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android?
Yes. Anything with a modern browser works: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. No software installation is required.
Is there a file size limit for Org to POTX?
The only limit is your device's memory, since nothing is uploaded. Files up to a few hundred megabytes work fine on a modern desktop browser; very large files simply take a little longer.
What about speaker notes?
The main extraction covers slide text; notes live in a separate part of the package and are not included in this export.
Will Org to POTX keep the slide order?
Yes — slides are read from the file in their real order and numbered, so the output follows the deck exactly.
