By saving through the online PowerPoint it overrides the MAC creation tool and allows PowerPoint to preserve the hyperlinks. MACs have their own PDF creation mechanism so when saving as a PDF in PowerPoint the MAcs converter overrides PowerPoint’s native PDF creation tool, and in that process, you lose the hyperlinks. Then from here, you can do a Save As and select Download as PDF. In the upper left corner there is a box of dots, click on that and open PowerPoint. Then log into your account online and click go to your account. When you’re finished editing your file, Save it as a PowerPoint file. I should also mention that I’m working on a MAC.
But I ran into a problem with my PDF losing the hyperlinks when I saved the file.
From there I added the many hyperlinks in PowerPoint to make the planner easy and smooth to navigate. When creating my digital planner I did all the layout and design work in Canva and then had Canva transfer the file to Powerpoint.
