Will the result be exactly editable like a native PowerPoint file?

Reconstruction quality depends on the source PDF's structure — cleanly laid-out, text-based PDFs convert to far more usable slides than scanned image-only PDFs.

Why can't this run client-side?

Recreating editable slide objects from a static PDF page requires the same kind of layout analysis as PDF to Word, which is beyond what a browser can perform alone.

What happens if I click Convert to PowerPoint right now?

If no backend is configured, the page tells you clearly that a backend isn't connected rather than pretending to convert your file.

Is this tool actually finished?

The upload flow, progress states, error handling and API integration are complete and production-ready; it needs a conversion backend deployed and connected via QPHP_API_BASE — see BACKEND-API-CONTRACT.md.

About PDF to PowerPoint

PDF to PowerPoint turns each page of a PDF into an editable slide — recreating text boxes and images as real, movable PowerPoint objects rather than one flattened picture per slide. That reconstruction requires layout analysis similar to PDF to Word, which is genuinely server-side work.

This page is a complete, production-ready frontend that calls a documented backend API (see BACKEND-API-CONTRACT.md) to perform that reconstruction. Once a backend implementing that contract is connected, it works with no further frontend changes.
