Share a Keynote deck with anyone
Apple Keynote .key presentations only open on Apple devices, so sending a deck to a Windows or Android audience usually means exporting first. Converting to PDF produces a portable copy of every slide that opens anywhere — while your file stays private, processed entirely in memory inside a network-free sandbox and never stored.
About Converting Keynote to PDF
Apple Keynote is the presentation app in iWork, and its .key files are packages built for the Apple ecosystem. A Keynote deck rarely opens outside Apple devices, so presenting to a Windows audience, emailing a deck for review, or archiving a talk usually means exporting first.
This converter renders a Keynote presentation to PDF without a Mac, turning every slide into a page anyone can view or print. The file is processed entirely in memory inside a network-free sandbox and is never stored.
Common use cases
- Sharing a Keynote deck with people who do not use Apple devices
- Handing out slides as a PDF before or after a presentation
- Archiving a talk in a universal, fixed format
- Reading a .key file on Windows or Android
Tips for best results
- Each slide becomes one PDF page, preserving layout and text.
- To edit or present in PowerPoint, use the Keynote to PowerPoint (.pptx) tool instead.
- Slide animations and transitions do not carry into a static PDF.
