# PowerPoint to SCORM Converter FAQs

---

### 

## What are the requirements for the PowerPoint file?

Refer to the [SmarterU File Uploads](/v1/docs/smarteru-file-uploads-1#powerpoint) page.

## Can SmarterU convert iSpring quizzes, audio, or characters?

The converter is designed to convert PowerPoint presentations (i.e., .ppt and .pptx). If you have any content from a third-party system (e.g., iSpring) added to your PowerPoint, the additional content will not convert. Any content added natively to the PowerPoint (e.g., narrations, animations, and transitions) should convert properly.

## Can I enroll learners in a course while it's converting?

It depends on whether the file being converted is for a new SCORM course, or an existing one.

If you are [uploading a PowerPoint presentation for a new course](/v1/docs/scorm-course-main#scorm-package), the course status will be set to *Archived* until the conversion completes. During this time, you will not be able to enroll anyone in the course.

If you are uploading a PowerPoint presentation for an existing course, learners who were previously enrolled in the course will not be affected by the conversion. When a learner starts a SCORM course (including PPTs converted to SCORM), they are locked into a snapshot of the course at the time they started it. Therefore, if you update a course with new content, the learner will continue to receive the version of the course that was in place when they started the course.

## Will custom fonts be converted?

In order for a font to be properly converted, the font needs to be installed on SmarterU's servers. Missing fonts will be defaulted to a known font which may have a negative impact to the course design.

Refer to the list of [supported fonts](/v1/docs/powerpoint-to-scorm-converter-supported-fonts) to learn whether your font is supported.

We recommend that you review all converted courses to ensure that all design elements are displaying properly.
