[external_link_head]This wikiHow teaches you how to convert a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation into a Microsoft Word document by using the “Create Handouts” feature on PowerPoint for Windows, or by exporting an RTF (Rich Text Format) file using PowerPoint for Mac. The current version of PowerPoint for Mac does not have the “Create Handouts” feature. RTF files are not able to accurately convert the formatting of some PowerPoint features, so many images and backgrounds may not be supported.
