To convert PPT to DOC, upload the PPT file, start the conversion and download the result. LibreOffice opens the PPT and saves it as DOC; styles and tables carry over where DOC supports them.
Slides, masters, text, artwork, charts, notes, and media relationships are interpreted from PPT and rebuilt with the features available in DOC. Playback behavior and editability require separate checks from visual similarity. PPT enters through a legacy compound-binary presentation parser that resolves slide records, masters, drawing objects, notes, transitions, and embedded media. The DOC destination uses the constraints of the legacy binary Word model, including older field, drawing, table, and compatibility behavior.
Read as the legacy binary PowerPoint presentation model. Rebuilt as the legacy binary Microsoft Word document model.

If you want the reasoning behind this PPT to DOC route, the field guide to file formats explains why a format is a set of tradeoffs rather than a label.
Used for sequenced visual slides with accompanying speaker notes.
Designed for editable text documents with styles, headings, and page layout.
Run the slide show and inspect master layouts, transitions, notes, charts, and embedded media.
Compare page breaks, tables, headers, footnotes, and tracked changes in Word or a compatible editor.
Animations, media, SmartArt, fonts, and newer effects may be flattened or repositioned.
Modern layout features, embedded objects, macros, and fonts may shift when the binary document is rebuilt.
the legacy binary Microsoft Word document model is what gets written, labeled as application/msword. Whether that actually opens depends on the receiving application, not on the file extension.
Choose DOC when its editing, reflow, or reader support is more valuable than exact PPT structure, and test the most complex page or chapter before committing.
