NotebookLM generates each slide as one flat image, so text cannot be edited in PowerPoint. Slide conversion in Ultra Exporter Pro uses the text every slide carries to rebuild the deck as an editable PowerPoint, a Markdown outline or a slide-by-slide speaker script.

## What it does

- Creates slides with an editable title and bullets, with narration in the notes.
- Can add the original slide image after each slide or as a thumbnail for reference.
- Exports a title-and-bullets outline or a read-aloud script per slide.

## Limits to know

- The layout is a clean re-layout, not the original design.
- Charts and illustrations inside the generated image are not turned into editable objects.
- The script is an editable draft; it is not a verbatim transcript of a Video Overview.

## Frequently asked questions

### Do I need Pro for slide conversion?

Yes. Editable PowerPoint, outline and speaker script. Free: Not included. Free exports slides as image PowerPoint, PDF, PNG or a long image.

### Can I keep the original look and still edit?

Not both in one slide. Keep the original image as a reference slide and edit the rebuilt one, or use the image deck when you only need to present.
