A PDF file can be an image and\/or text. <strong>To open these documents, you need to a compatible program, e.g., Adobe Acrobat Reader. This program must be purchased.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But there are some free-of-charge alternatives, such as <strong>PDFCreator<\/strong>. This installs itself as a <strong>printer driver <\/strong>\u2013 when you click on it, any program that has access to printer options will create a PDF file for you instead of a printout. The freeware <strong>BullZip,<\/strong> also creates PDF files using the printer dialog option. You can find more free alternative programs <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/best\/free-pdf-editor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A characteristic feature these file types is that they retain the original author&#8217;s layout. This means that <strong>a PDF can&#8217;t be easily edited after it&#8217;s been saved, so it looks the same on any computer system<\/strong>. That&#8217;s why many government agencies and companies rely on them.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-9502_be6836-ca .kt-block-spacer{height:20px;}.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-9502_be6836-ca .kt-divider{border-top-width:1px;height:1px;border-top-color:#eee;width:100%;border-top-style:solid;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-9502_be6836-ca\"><div class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"><hr class=\"kt-divider\"\/><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Insert a PDF into PowerPoint: your options<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can insert a PDF file into PowerPoint in the following ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>As a picture<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As an object<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As a link<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>With the Snipping Tool<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Convert online<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Not all methods of inserting your PDF into your PowerPoint presentation yield the same result: depending on the chosen method, you might either <strong>see only a single page of your PDF document or gain access to the entire file.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All these options are explained in more detail below.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-9502_7e0b73-32 .kt-block-spacer{height:20px;}.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-9502_7e0b73-32 .kt-divider{border-top-width:1px;height:1px;border-top-color:#eee;width:100%;border-top-style:solid;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-9502_7e0b73-32\"><div class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"><hr class=\"kt-divider\"\/><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Option 1: Insert a PDF into PowerPoint as a picture<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The easiest and fastest method to insert a PDF file into your PowerPoint presentation is through &#8220;<strong>Drag and Drop<\/strong>&#8220;:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\" start=\"1\">\n<li>Open your PowerPoint presentation and the folder containing the desired PDF file in two adjacent windows.<br><br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the PDF file and <strong>drag it onto the open slide of your PowerPoint presentation<\/strong>.
