Export Adobe Express presentation to ppt-type is a continuous mess

I read a lot of discussions about this subject, and tried a lot of 'work arounds', I checked ALL the parameters that could 'influence' my result, but I'm still very disappointed how I can get a decent MS Powerpoint-file out of AE! Not even to mention, a simple export-to-ppt is NOT available, but I have to take several steps and work-arounds to get my presentation from AE towards this worldwide used Office Standard !!

I tried it via export to pdf, then opening files via Adobe Acrobat and use the 'convert to ppt' etc etc, still the fonts are messed up or - in the best case - are suddenly some kind of grouped together, so I can't do any edits anymore to the content, etc etc ... 
I lost serval hours of this trial & error-quest, but I'm lost ...

I'm using Canva Pro for years now - but I have to make the change to AE in my professional job - and I did NEVER faced these issues there. It's really that easy in Canva; save as ppt-file ... no hassle, no friction, no issues ... 
Take a look at Canva, Adobe! Maybe you can learn from it ... 😉

It’s frustrating, especially if you use Adobe Express as a timeline maker and need things to line up properly. I noticed that some fonts and alignments just don’t carry over well, no matter what. For now, I just export the images and drop them into PowerPoint manually to save time.

Hey @Astonished_Sunbeam0132. Thanks for the feedback regarding the presentation export. This is definitely not the experience we'd want you to have.

 

Would it be possible for you to share the actual project and the downloaded .pptx format for us to see what didn't work when exporting the project? It'll help us investigate the issue and improve the functionality of the app.

 

Best,

Amitej

I ended up reformatting everything in PowerPoint after export.

I had the same issue and found that rechecking the text boxes slide by slide after export helped a bit—some fonts still shifted, but fewer layout breaks overall.
