About This Feature
Overview
Export as PDF is a presentation export feature in WPS Office for iOS. It converts the current presentation into a PDF file so the layout stays consistent across devices when you save, view, print, or share it.
Core capabilities include:
- Export a presentation as a PDF file for sharing and archiving.
- Choose a standard PDF output for everyday reading, printing, and distribution.
- Choose an image-based PDF output for scenarios where you want to reduce direct text copying.
- Open the generated PDF file after export is complete.
Common use cases include course handouts, meeting materials, and presentation archiving. It helps when you need a fixed-layout version of a presentation instead of an editable slide file.

| Capability Summary | In WPS for iOS, you can open a presentation, go to More, and export it as PDF. The feature includes standard PDF and image-based PDF output options. | Microsoft Support documents PDF export in Word for the web through File → Export, focused on document export rather than an iOS presentation workflow. | Google support community guidance shows Google Slides can be downloaded as PDF through File → Download → PDF Document (.pdf), mainly in a web workflow. | Notion officially supports exporting pages as PDF and adjusting page format and scale. Its export flow is centered on pages and databases rather than slide presentations. | Adobe Acrobat online supports uploading a PPT or PPTX file and converting it to PDF in a browser-based workflow. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: the export flow is built into the presentation workflow on iOS. Distinct: it offers both standard PDF and image-based PDF output in the feature flow described here. | Compared with WPS: the official page focuses on Word document export, not a presentation export flow on iOS. | Compared with WPS: the official guidance centers on downloading Slides as PDF and does not describe an image-based PDF option in the cited page. | Compared with WPS: Notion is designed for page content export, so its PDF workflow is not presentation-first. | Compared with WPS: Adobe emphasizes browser-based file conversion after upload, while WPS completes the export inside the presentation app flow. |
