Turn your PowerPoint slides into printable flashcards
Upload a deck and get flashcards built from its slide text, ready for spaced review on screen or on paper.
Why generate printable cards from your own slides
Many students who need printable flashcards from PowerPoint end up retyping every slide by hand, which takes longer than the studying itself. Generating cards from the deck you already have keeps the wording close to what your instructor used and what will appear on the exam.
- Upload a .pptx file and get cards from the slide text
- Export a PDF on Plus at $99.90/year or $9.99/month
- Study in the browser on the free plan, with 3 generations per month
- Pair printed cards with spaced repetition in the app to review the weak ones
Reads your slides
Upload PPTX files directly. Text on slides is extracted so the cards come from your lecture, not a generic template.
Spaced repetition built in
Cards are scheduled for review so you see the hard ones more often, whether you study in the browser or from a printout.
Print-ready PDF export
Plus members can export the full set as a PDF, so you can print cards and cut them out for a study session away from the screen.
How it works
Upload your PowerPoint
Add the .pptx file, or paste notes, a PDF, or photos of printed slides if the deck is not handy.
Review the generated cards
Check the questions and answers, edit anything that looks off, and remove cards you do not need.
Export as a PDF to print
On Plus, export the set as a PDF and print it. The free plan includes browser study only, with no exports.
A printed set works well for shuffling, sorting known from unknown, and studying somewhere without a laptop. Because the cards come from your own material, you can print only the sections you are behind on, such as one lecture or one unit, and keep the rest for later review.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for the American Civil War?
Start with 20 to 30 cards per lecture or unit, covering dates, people, and causes. Keep each card to one fact so you can test yourself quickly.
What makes a good history flashcard?
Put a specific prompt on the front, such as a date, a person, or a term, and a short answer on the back. Avoid cards with long paragraphs, because they are hard to recall under time pressure.
Can I print my flashcards from DeckOwl?
Yes, PDF export is included on the Plus plan, which costs $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.
Do I need a credit card to try it?
No. You can start on the free plan with 3 generations per month without adding a card, and students with a school email get 40% off Plus.
