> **Note:** **The PPTX Import feature is in BETA**. Please note that this feature is still in BETA, so it works best for presentations that contain simpler designs (eg. mostly consisting of text, images and shapes). See below for a list of [supported](#supported-in-pptx-to-figma-imports) and [unsupported](#not-supported-in-pptx-figma-imports) content.

To import a PPTX file that you've exported from the PowerPoint app, Kenote app, or Google Slides, you can drag and drop (or click and browse) a `.pptx` file from your computer into the **Import .pptx** dropzone area underneath the slide list in the Pitchdeck plugin; then please wait for the editable slides to be imported into a new page in your current Figma file.

> **Tip:** **If your .pptx file won't open in the plugin**. If you've dropped in a `.pptx` file and the plugin says it can't read it, please try opening the file in your PowerPoint desktop app again, then re-saving the presentation as a brand new `.pptx` file and then try using this new `.pptx` file to drag into the Pitchdeck plugin.

If you'd like to use your imported PPTX slides in [Figma Slides](https://www.figma.com/slides/) (instead of a regular Figma file), you can drag and drop (or click and browse) a `.pptx` file from your computer into the **Import .pptx** dropzone area underneath the slide list in the Pitchdeck plugin; then after the slides have finished importing, you can select the slide(s) on your Figma canvas, then right-click and click **Copy**, then open a new Figma Slides file and right-click anywhere in the slides list (on the left hand side) and click **Paste** to insert your slides into your Figma Slides file.
