TL;DR

To import a presentation into a Klaxoon Board, click the three-dot menu → Import → Presentation, then select a supported file (PDF or PPTX) and click Open. Klaxoon automatically converts each slide to an image, places them in order, and creates a zone per slide. Use Import > Presentation (not Convert > PDF) for slide images. After importing, you can comment, add questions/stickies, or present the deck.

Overview

Use Import > Presentation to add a presentation to a Board as slide images. Klaxoon uploads the file, converts each slide on the server, places the slides in order, and creates a zone for each slide automatically.

Important: If you want to import slides from a presentation, use Import > Presentation. Do not use Convert > PDF for this workflow. That option converts the file into vector objects instead of slide images.

How to Import a Presentation

1. Open the Board where you want to import the presentation.
2. Click the three-dot 1 menu in the toolbar.
3. Click Import 2.
4. Select Presentation 3.

5. Choose a supported file, such as a PDF or PPTX 4. 

   

6. Click Open 5 to upload the file.

7. Wait while Klaxoon uploads and converts the file.
