Keep individual PPT files under 200–250 MB for smooth web conversions; very large files may time out or require splitting.
Preserve quality by increasing export resolution (DPI) and using 256-color GIF with dithering for complex slides; convert critical images to PNG before embedding if possible.
For animations or slide transitions, export as animated GIF with appropriate frame delays; note that advanced PowerPoint animations may not map perfectly to GIF frame sequences.
Batch convert similar PPT files by exporting slides to images in PowerPoint first or use a converter that supports multi-file uploads to speed up workflow.
