PowerPoint Search Engine
Find PowerPoint presentations on any topic. DocJax searches for both PPT and PPTX files, and the Where menu adds .edu sites, Google Slides and SlideShare.

Where PowerPoint Files Come From
Most PowerPoint files in search results are lecture slides posted by teachers and universities, conference talks, training decks and company presentations. Putting Where on Universities (.edu) is the quickest way to find course material.
How to Find PowerPoint Presentations
- Type the subject, like “cell biology” or “project kickoff.”
- Keep PowerPoint selected. Add PDF too if you also want slides that were saved as PDF.
- Pick Universities (.edu) for lecture slides, or Government (.gov) for official briefings.
- Put a word in the title under More filters, such as “lecture” or “chapter.”
Google Slides and SlideShare
Many decks never become a .pptx file. Google Slides presentations live at docs.google.com/presentation and SlideShare hosts millions of uploaded decks. Both are on the Where menu. See Google Drive search for how public Slides get found.
Searching for Word, Excel or PDF files instead? Use the document search engine, or build your own query with the Google dork generator.
Questions
How do I find PowerPoint presentations on Google?
Add filetype:ppt OR filetype:pptx to your search, for example photosynthesis filetype:pptx. Google then lists PowerPoint files only. DocJax adds both extensions when you pick PowerPoint.
What is the difference between PPT and PPTX?
PPT is the older PowerPoint format used up to Office 2003. PPTX replaced it in Office 2007 and is what PowerPoint saves today. Searching both catches old and new files.
Can I search Google Slides and SlideShare too?
Yes. Change Where to Google Slides or SlideShare. Those presentations have no .pptx file, so DocJax searches them by address.
Can I use PowerPoint files I find online?
Viewing them is fine, but most presentations are still under copyright. Check the license, or ask the author, before you reuse slides in your own work.
