Exporting a Photo from PowerPoint to a Separate File


What goes in must come out, right? Suppose you have a picture that exists only in PowerPoint, for whatever reason. Perhaps it was scanned directly into PowerPoint in an earlier version, for example, and you no longer have access to the original file.

There are two ways to get a graphic out of PowerPoint and make it a separate file again: You can use the Save As Picture feature in PowerPoint, or you can simply use the Windows Clipboard to copy and paste a graphic into an image-editing program.

  • Exporting a Graphic with Save As Picture:

    To save a picture separately from PowerPoint, do the following:

    1. Right-click the picture in PowerPoint and choose Save as Picture.

    2. In the Save as Picture dialog box, display the location where you want to save the file.

    3. Open the Save As Type list and choose the graphic format you want. You can choose TIF, JPEG, or a variety of others. See the discussion of file formats earlier in this chapter for guidance.

    4. Enter a name in the File Name box.

    5. Click Save.

  • Exporting a Graphic with the Clipboard: Copy-and-paste is a fast and simple way of transferring a graphic from PowerPoint into an image-editing program, and from there you can save it in any supported format. Select a graphic in PowerPoint, copy it (Ctrl+C), open the graphics program, and paste it (Ctrl+V).

  • Exporting Entire PowerPoint Slides as Graphics: You can save entire slides-or all slides in the whole presentation-as images by simply choosing a graphic file format when doing an Office image from book Save As. If you save the whole presentation as graphics, the files are placed in a folder.

EXPERT TIP 

You could also save the presentation in HTML format. This will generate an HTML file and a folder full of support files, and each graphic will be in there as a separate file.
