A method for converting Microsoft® PowerPoint® (PPT) presentation files into compressed image files is provided. The method includes reading and parsing a PPT presentation file to identify each presentation slide and each presentation object in each presentation slide. The attributes of each presentation object are examined to determine whether effects are applied, and to identify animated GIF objects. The method provides for capturing the end-point effect applied to any presentation object and rendering the presentation object in as many compressed image files as necessary to capture the end-point effect. Additionally, each image of an animated GIF object is analyzed to determine the most complex image to render in a compressed image file.
