In some cases, we need to convert PowerPoint presentation to Word document in order to facilitate our printing and reading. Under the condition that we have no more enough time to re-enter the information into Word format, we want to copy the contents of PowerPoint slides into a Word document in the most convenient and efficient way. So How to Convert PowerPoint to Word Document? Here several ways are introduced to you on how to turn a PowerPoint into a Word document.
