### What is it?

A button on the PQD Ribbon that will enable a user to convert a Visio template into a PowerPoint Pro Quick Draw Template.

### Why does it matter?

Previously, users could export their Visio documents to PowerPoint, but the result was a static PNG image that lacked editing capabilities. If any changes were needed, users had to return to Visio, make the adjustments, and re-export the document.

Now, with the new process, users can easily select a PowerPoint template from the button and export their Visio content directly as a fully editable PowerPoint template. This streamlined workflow is particularly beneficial for coaching staffs who need to quickly convert Visio materials into PowerPoint for sharing with team members or staff.

### How does it work?

1. Create your document using a Visio Pro Quick Draw Template
2. Click the Convert to PowerPoint button within the PQD Ribbon.
3. Select your template (if you need to map to the correct templates folder, click the three dots and select the correct folder.)
4. Click the three dots to the right of the **File Name** to name your file and choose the export location.
5. Click **Convert**.
6. When completed, you will have an option to Show in folder or Open the new document.
