The problem that remains with this macro and the other macro, is that the content of a text block with multiple animations is always shown as a whole (e.g. This blog post provides a VBA macro script that will split every slide that has animations into multiple slides, without keeping the original slides in front of the expanded slides (as is the case in this answer).

I have searched SO and didn't find a satisfactory answer to deal with animations.

LaTeX Beamer, already mentioned, but I would prefer to avoid typing these ppts content and animations into LaTeX just so that the animations are displayed correctly in PDF.

Also, it doesn't support transparency (for example, a text box with a semitransparent bg over an image) As Slideshare, it will just put one image over the other.

PDFcreator, the quality is quite superior in comparison, but it doesn't support the animations neither.

Slideshare, however not only it doesn't support animations, but internal navigation doesn't work, and the fonts are all messed up.

I know you can create animated slides with LaTeX Beamer that convert nicely to PDF, I have made some of those, but I also have some ppt files that I want to convert to PDF. Is there a tool that can convert the ppt to PDF and keep each animation in a separate slide, for example?

Internal navigation / menu / link to another slide.

Showing images one by one or zooming a plot.

For all of you, people who make ppt slides with animations like:
