Setting automatic conversion from PowerPoint to PDF, especially on corporate computers, can be done using Folder Mill – the software that will set automatic conversion settings. Each time you will receive the PowerPoint files and will need to convert them to PDF, this conversion will be performed automatically – all you need to do is to specify the conversion rule to the software.

1. Install FolderMill on the server
2. Get two folders for each employee. For example, employee John will get the following folders: C:\Joon-Input and C:\John-Output
3. Add a new rule to FolderMill: folder C:\Joon-Input will receive the PowerPoint presentation files, and folder C:\John-Output will get the PDF files created from PowerPoint presentations
4. Now FolderMill is ready to get all the files put to C:\Joon-Input and automatically convert them to PDF. The converted files will be saved at C:\John-Output. John and other employers will not need to install any additional software. They will only need to copy PowerPoint files into one folder and get PDF files from another one.

The Universal Document Converter package includes useful resources for developers. Public API and code examples, as well as the automatic deployment will help install and use the Universal Document Converter on a number of workstations.

The Universal Document Converter can be used as the “conversion kernel”, which means that the developers can utilize the existing resources for their own projects implementation. Here are some examples of converting PowerPoint presentations to PDF in different programming languages.
