Is there any way to import a presentation into scartch?

The fact is that I started a presentation with power point, but at almost the end of the presentation I realize that I need to upload it online, but as I saw, this may cause the loss of any animation I used, so I wonder if it's possible to convert everyting into scratch and start again rearranging the slides with the scripts
Is there any way to do it?

I think Scratch and MS Power Point are different things. Two different formats.

Yeah, it's pretty unlikely that the format is anything alike, and if it was, you'd still probably have a lot of trouble.

I think you can save the Powerpoint as an image for each slide, and import those into Scratch, but obviously that would lose the animation.

There are dedicated slide sharing sites that you could use. Maybe try Google Docs.

Importing directly, no. But a possible workaround might exist depending on how the PowerPoint presentation was designed.

If a majority of your presentation is still slides and your animations are GIF files that can be broken down into frames, you could take screenshots of the still slides and import them into Scratch, and then import the GIF files separately as their own sprites that would appear whenever the correct slide shows on the stage.

Other animation files types, like Flash animations, won't work.

I know I'm four years late but, could anyone tell me how to do this. Recently, I made part of an animation on MS paint and put all of it together in one powerpoint. I am trying to put the powerpoint on Scratch, each slide another costume for a single sprite so it is less of a hassle trying to get everything to line up. I could try to make each slide its own document but, this would be a problem because I have over 130 slides. Please keep in mind that no slide has a gif. Just a single picture. Thank you!

My alt account, where I upload nothing (much like my main account)
I play video games and sometimes do other things. I don't really make anything on Scratch anymore, but I'm relatively active on the Undertale and Deltarune forums.

The necropost here is fine since the response is related.

@TecoBELL2017: There is no way to import a PowerPoint presentation into Scratch. Sadly, you will have to deal with 130 documents (and you have to make sure each document is an image file that is compatible with the Scratch software)
