Supported and unsupported elements

There are some elements that might not export the way you’d expect. Supported elements of your original presentation should export to a PPTX file seamlessly.

Unsupported elements might look a bit different or be absent, depending on whether or not import functionality for a specific type of block already exists in Pitch.

Supported elements in a PowerPoint export:

  • Slides

  • Images (JPG, PNG, SVGs). Please note that GIFs may not play in PowerPoint web

  • Text (Bullet colors take the text color of the list item)

  • Shapes

  • Tables

  • Speaker notes

  • Embedded videos from Vimeo, Youtube. Thumbnails will not be included in the export.

  • Charts (these may look different in the export based on PowerPoint’s formatting)

  • Fonts will be included in the export. However, we cannot always embed the font into the PowerPoint file (in some cases it can fall back to Calibri). In order to display the correct font, it needs to be installed on your computer.

Unsupported elements in a PowerPoint export

  • Uploaded videos

  • Recordings

  • Animations (enter/exit effects, transitions, continuity)

Recordings and uploaded videos will be displayed as a thumbnail in the exported presentation.

FAQ
