Answer 1

I'm using PowerPoint 2016. I used this site to convert my PowerPoint to an HTML file. I got the CSS, HTML, JavaScript all in one HTML file.

By far the easiest way to convert your PPT to HTML5 format is to use iSpring Converter Pro. Check it out here: http://www.ispringsolutions.com/ppt-to-html

Answer 3

The "Save As Webpage" option no longer exists on PowerPoint 2010 and later.

Microsoft has provided a workaround, summarized as, "use the ppSaveAsHTML argument for the *.htm file format."

• In PowerPoint 2010, open the presentation that you want to export to HTML.
• Press Alt+F11, this opens VB for Apps.
• Press Ctrl+G, this opens the Immediate pane.

• In the Immediate pane, type the following, and then press the Enter key:

  ActivePresentation.SaveAs "<Drive>:\users\<username>\desktop\<filename>.htm", ppSaveAsHTML, msoFalse

To save by using the Single File Web Page (*.mht;*.mhtml) file format, replace htm at the end of the file name with mht, and replace ppSaveAsHTML with ppSaveAsWebArchive.

Since I'm guessing you're not the best with web design hardcode, your options are:

Go into powerpoint, and use the 'Save For Web' button. It won't be perfect, you'll probably have to tweak some stuff, but you could make it look right with much less coding knowledge then the normal site.

OR: Make a flash site and embed the powerpoint into the flash, if you're flash savvy.

OR: Here's a poweproint conversion tool if your powerpoint if you don't want to code at all: http://www.pptools.com/ppt2html/index.html I'm not sure how well it works, you'll probably just end up frustrated and you'll have to code some anyway.

Option #1 is good, and it will require very little actual coding, just fixing the thing powerpoint does wrong.

Option #3, flash ewww.

Option #4 I haven't tried it, but you sure can if you're feeling up to it, probably won't be too fast or customizable.

But overall, the best bet is going to be look at it with your eyes and convert it using your knowledge of code and w3fools.com, err, oops, http://www.w3schools.com/ as a resource.

Have you tried the converion tool html5point? They have a demo on the site as in convertio. But there is a watermark on the output.

FWIW, I don't think the PPTools PPT2HTML add-in will give the needed results. I wrote it, so I suppose I can answer as authoritatively as anyone. ;-)

It'll give you an image of the original PPT slide, optionally with an image map that preserves the links and action settings if any.

And it could be used to extract the title, body and any other text in a fairly predictable way, and could even insert any HTML/CSS code you like around each of these bits of text, but unless the slide/slides are fairly simple examples of stock PPT slides, that might not be very helpful.
