Creating PDFs from PNGs in Adobe Acrobat

Creating PDFs from exported PNGs forms the next sequence of our PowerPoint to Secure PDF tutorial series. Before you proceed, make sure that you have the slides exported as PNGs from within PowerPoint. You’ll also need to have Adobe Acrobat Pro installed on your system; and this is a different animal than the free Adobe Acrobat Reader. You can download a trial version of Adobe Acrobat Pro from the Adobe site. At the time of writing, version 9 of Adobe Acrobat Pro was current. If you have a different version of Adobe Acrobat Pro, the process will be still similar.

Of course, you can create your PDFs straight from PowerPoint, but that process allows you to copy text and graphics individually from within the PDF. Compared to that process, this tutorial uses flattened slides that don’t have any selectable or editable text. Get started by exporting your slides as individual PNGs from within PowerPoint.
