Do you have a ton of PowerPoint presentations you want to view on your iPad? Playing PowerPoint presentation on iPad is wanted for most iPad users. Even though your iPad can not play PowerPoint directly, there are some simple yet not direct ways to have your PowerPoint slideshows displayed on your iPad. Let’s walk through the following 4 ways below to show you how to watch PowerPoint Presentation using your iPad.
Export PowerPoint slides as pictures
iPad is equipped with a slideshow photo viewer, then converting your PowerPoint slideshow to pictures is a good way to view it on iPad. The most common supported image formats by iPad are .jpg, .bmp, .gif, and .png. The following steps let you save your slideshow as pictures: 1. Open up your PowerPoint slideshow. 2. Export the slides using File > Save As... 3. At the pop-up, select the 'Save as type", and choose "*.jpg". 4. When PowerPoint asks whether you want to export all slides, choose "Every Slide". Then your slides are now exported. PowerPoint will tell you where the still pictures have been stored. By default, they are named "Slide x.JPG". After that, you can transport the pictures to the Image folder of iPad. The limitations of this solution is that no animations, no transitions, and no sound and video clips will be preserved when displaying the presentation.
An improved solution for this is using Picture Link to make your ppt interactive. with Picture link, you can easily adjust the playing order as you want.
Convert PowerPoint presentation to video formats for Playing it on iPad
I think this is the best way to play PowerPoint presentation on iPad. Many PowerPoint to video converters provide the smart feature to convert PowerPoint presentation to iPad supported video formats (.m4v, .mp4, and .mov) that retain all the features of the original PowerPoint files like animations, transitions, audios, and video clips.
Acoolsoft PPT to Video Pro is such a converter that you can convert your presentation to .mp4 or .mov video for iPad. It also enables users to convert presentations to videos then let you transfer the video presentation for viewing on iPad.
I like this “loseless” way that help me view the video presentation on my iPad. It displays the presentation on iPad as the same as the original presentation file, and you will like it too!
Transfer PowerPoint to PDF files
iPad is a superior platform to read PDF files in a tablet-style format. There are quite a few programs like CloudReaders and Easy PDF that are designed for viewing PDF files on iand. Transferring PowerPoint presentations to PDF files may be another way to view PPT on iPad. Besides the programs mentioned above, Apple iPad supports also viewing PDF as an attachment via Mail application.
There are many free PowerPoint to PDF converters online to create PDF files from PowerPoint presentation, such as
http://www.freepdfconvert.com/, http://www.pdfonline.com/, and Anypdftools PowerPoint to PDF converter. However, if there are many animations, audios and video in your presentation, it may not be a good way to retain all the effects and objects. All the animations and transitions will disappear, not to mention the audio and video clips.
Forward PowerPoint attachment to MightyMeeting for viewing it on iPad
Forward PowerPoint attachments to MightyMeeting also let you view your presentation on your iPad. This app can be used to view the slides and project them via iPad's VGA output. You can also share the slides remotely.
View PowerPoint presentations on iPad via presentation sharing sites
The lack of Flash support is an obstacle for many presentations sharing websites that use Adobe’s technology for multimedia support to show the presentation on iPad, but there are some sites features compatibility for the iPad, such as authorSTREAM.com and DocStoc.com.
Take authorSTREAM.com for example, it is a free web-based platform that offers the new edition for PowerPoint presentation sharing service compatible with iPad. for sharing PowerPoint presentations．
For viewing your PowerPoint slide show on iPad, you can upload your PowerPoint slide show on authorSTREAM.com. When you open the URL provided by authorStream on iPad, you can view your presentation normally that has been converted to the iPad compatible format. You can also download your presentations as video, and view them on iPad. This way is good for presentations that do not include videos and audios files that are larger than 50,000KB. It will retain the animations of the presentation but not all the audios and videos.
