PPT Comments Extractor

The extractor pulls all review comments and annotations from your presentation, including inline comments, threaded replies, and comment markers. Author names, timestamps, and the slide each comment belongs to are all included in the output.

Comments are exported as a structured text (TXT) file organized by slide number, with each comment's text listed under its slide for easy reading.

Yes, comments from every reviewer are extracted. Each comment is labeled with the author's name so you can easily identify who said what. This is perfect for compiling feedback from multiple stakeholders into a single readable document.

Both PPTX and legacy PPT formats are supported. However, the commenting system differs between formats — PPTX files have richer comment metadata (threading, timestamps) that is fully preserved. Legacy PPT comments are extracted with available metadata.

Teams use comment extraction to compile all presentation feedback into one document for review meetings. It's also useful for creating action item lists from review cycles, documenting the review process, and tracking changes requested by different stakeholders.

Yes, both active and resolved comments are included in the extraction. Resolved comments are marked as such so you can distinguish between open feedback and items that have already been addressed.

Comment extraction is very fast, typically completing in under 10 seconds. Since it only reads comment metadata (not slide content or media), the process is lightweight regardless of how large or image-heavy the presentation file is.

If no comments are found, the tool will let you know that the presentation contains no review comments. This can happen if comments were deleted, if the file was saved as a new copy without comments, or if the presentation was never reviewed.
