Share a Keynote Presentation as PDF

Keynote can reveal content through builds and transitions. PDF pages are static, so viewers may see only a chosen final state and will not experience timed movement. Decide whether a handout communicates the material without the live sequence.

If the order of builds explains a process, provide an approved recording or the presentation itself alongside the PDF. Do not expect a page document to reproduce a speaker's timing or audience interaction.

Speaker notes do not necessarily appear in a slide-only PDF. If the audience needs notes, choose a notes layout or create a separate handout and verify its pages. Review comments or internal annotations before sharing a public copy.

Embedded movies and audio are not dependable interactive content in a static page. Check what representation remains and provide media through an approved separate channel when it is necessary to understand the presentation.
