Hello,

If you're comfortable with the terminal, you can use Pandoc to convert between a bunch of documents, including .pptx files. After you install Pandoc, cd to the directory where the files you want to convert are located and type:

pandoc -o converted.txt original.pptx

Substitute original.pptx with the file you want to convert. converted.txt can have any name you want. Just make sure that you append the file extension.
