Best Practices for Word Documents

Structure Your Document Well

The better your Word document is structured, the better the slides will be:

  • Use heading styles (Heading 1, Heading 2, Heading 3) — don't just bold text
  • Use bullet lists — they translate directly to slide content
  • Insert section breaks — natural slide boundaries
  • Avoid text boxes — they may not convert properly
  • Avoid complex columns — single-column works best

Ideal Document Types for Conversion

Document Type Conversion Quality Notes
Business reports ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Headings + bullets = perfect slides
Academic papers ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great with clear section structure
Meeting notes ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Action items become excellent slides
Training manuals ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Step-by-step content works perfectly
Creative writing ⭐⭐ Narrative text doesn't suit slides well
