Make Room for Your Next Revision
A new heading, a translated paragraph, or an updated label can change the space a slide needs.
Reposition Graphics Around Your Content
When an icon or illustration is recovered as a separate region, you can move it without shifting the whole page. SlideRebuild lets you resize those regions and use alignment guides while adjusting the composition.
- Move separately reconstructed visual regions
- Resize graphics to make room for new copy
- Inspect areas that remain part of a larger image

Refine the Typography After Reconstruction
SlideRebuild matches source lettering against available fonts, then gives you control over the result. Adjust recognized text to suit a revised title, longer explanation, or different audience.
- Review the matched font and size
- Change color, weight, and line spacing
- Compare revised text with the source slide
Choose Based on the Changes You Need
Consider whether you need to rearrange source visuals, revise text, or keep the entire workflow on your device.
When SlideRebuild fits
You want to recover an existing deck and adjust both recognized text and separated visual regions before exporting.
- Reposition recovered graphics when the layout needs to change.
- Refine matched fonts, colors, and paragraph spacing.
- Save revisions to your account and return to the project online.
When DeckEdit fits
You prefer on-device processing and want editable text while keeping the original page design as a background.
- Convert locally without creating an account.
- Work offline after the required models are cached.
- Use its separate authoring workflow for blank slides, themes, and templates.
Compare What Becomes Editable
Text recovery and visual separation affect different kinds of revisions. Look at both when evaluating your converted deck.
| Compare | SlideRebuild | DeckEdit |
|---|---|---|
| Reconstruction approach | Recognizes source text and separates visual regions where possible for further editing. | Local OCR rebuilds text boxes over a retained image background in its PDF/image conversion workflow. |
| Graphics from the source | Separately recovered icons and image regions can be moved or resized. Complex artwork may remain image-based. | Its conversion guide describes source graphics and decorative elements as part of the background image. |
| Text and typography | Font matching with editable wording, font, size, weight, color, and line spacing. | Recovered text boxes with wording, font, and color adjustments before export. |
| Browser editing | Edit the reconstructed slide, compare with the source, and use undo, redo, and alignment guides. | Also has an editor with drag/resize controls, undo/redo, themes, and templates. |
