Translate PowerPoint (.pptx) and Keep the Images
Images, charts and background graphics are not moved and not replaced. Only text nodes are touched, and on a scan the artwork under a replaced label is rebuilt rather than blanked.
What Survives When You Translate PowerPoint (.pptx)
- Slide masters, layouts and placeholder geometry are untouched; text is replaced inside the shapes it already lived in.
- Speaker notes are translated with the deck rather than left in the source language for the presenter to find on stage.
- Tables, grouped shapes and diagram text are reached individually rather than flattened into one block.
- Images, video and background graphics are left exactly as they were. Only text nodes change.

What This Does Not Do
- Translated text is often longer than the source. Where a slide was already full the text can overflow its shape, and we do not silently shrink it to hide that.
- Anything the verify stage cannot confirm falls back to the source text, visible and untranslated. A file that looks finished but is not is the one outcome we will not ship.
Questions
- Do the Images Survive Translating a PowerPoint (.pptx)?
- Images, charts and background graphics are not moved and not replaced. Only text nodes are touched, and on a scan the artwork under a replaced label is rebuilt rather than blanked.
- What happens to my file afterwards?
- Uploaded and generated files are automatically deleted within 24 hours, and are never used to train a model.

No card and no per-file character minimum. If a segment cannot be translated confidently you will see it fall back, rather than a green tick over a guess.
