How to create a slideshow in Powerpoint

While saving a PowerPoint 2013 file to a PDF is a simple "Save As," bringing PDF content into PowerPoint requires more know-how, especially if you want the PowerPoint file to look the same as the original PDF. Although no easy Microsoft conversion tool exists, Adobe Acrobat XI and several third-party apps offer excellent conversion options. Additionally, PowerPoint 2013's quick-fix options like screen capture or inserting PDF files as objects will get the job done. A final option is saving PDFs to Microsoft Word, and then opening the edited Word files in PowerPoint.

Insert PDF Content From Within PowerPoint
An easy way to capture PDF content for your presentations is to copy it directly into PowerPoint 2013. Open both files and navigate to the slide where you want your PDF content. The PDF must be the most recent file opened. Click on the slide, choose "Images" from the Insert tab and then "Screenshot." From the "Available Windows" drop-down, choose "Screen Clipping." Several things happen at once: PowerPoint minimizes, the PDF file becomes active, the screen appears frosted and your mouse turns into a crosshair, ready to select PDF content. Draw a box around the desired area, and then press the "Esc" key to return to PowerPoint. Resize and move this object around like any other graphic.
If you have an earlier version of PowerPoint or are more comfortable using the Windows Clipping Tool or a screen capturing software like SnagIt or Skitch, save the captures as JPG files or paste them directly into PowerPoint with a regular Windows copy and paste.
Some people prefer to embed PDFs as supporting documents by navigating to the "Insert" tab, choosing "Object" and then selecting "Create from File." Click "Browse" and navigate to the PDF file. Double-click on the file or choose "Open" before pressing "OK." The PDF file is now part of the presentation and can be opened and viewed from Normal view.
