Why use this instead of Google Slides export?

This converter lets you create PDFs from shared Google Slides links without needing a Google account or edit access to the presentation. It is especially useful when someone shares a view-only link and you want a PDF copy for offline reading, printing, or archiving. The tool uses server-side SVG extraction from the published HTML, which often produces higher fidelity output than Google's built-in PDF export because it captures the exact vector rendering of each slide rather than a rasterized export.

Does this work with private Google Slides?

The presentation must be shared with "Anyone with the link" viewer access for the converter to access it. Presentations restricted to specific Google accounts or organizations cannot be converted because the tool has no way to authenticate with Google. To check your sharing settings, open the presentation in Google Slides, click "Share," and verify the access is set to "Anyone with the link." You do not need to grant edit access — view-only access is sufficient.

Will the PDF include speaker notes?

No, the PDF contains only the visible slide content, not speaker notes. The converter captures what is displayed on each slide in presentation mode — text, images, charts, shapes, and backgrounds. This is actually ideal for sharing with audiences, as speaker notes are typically meant for the presenter only. If you need speaker notes included, use Google Slides' built-in "File > Download > PDF" option from within the editor, which offers a notes-included layout.

What quality are the exported PDFs?

Google Slides conversions use server-side SVG extraction, which captures each slide as a scalable vector graphic directly from the published HTML source. This produces crisp, high-resolution output at any zoom level because the text and shapes remain as vectors rather than being rasterized to pixels. The SVGs are then rendered to high-resolution PNGs and assembled into the final PDF. This approach typically produces better quality than Google's own PDF export, especially for text-heavy slides.

What Google Slides URL formats are supported?

pitch2pdf supports all common Google Slides URL formats: published links (/pub and /pubembed), preview links (/preview), embed links (/embed), and even editor URLs (/edit, /present, bare links). Non-public URLs are automatically normalized to the published format for conversion. For the best results, use a "Publish to the web" link (/pub), which enables server-side SVG extraction for maximum fidelity. Regular share links also work, but must have "Anyone with the link" access enabled.
