Method 1: Use the “Save as Picture” Option
Using the “Save as Picture” option is the quickest way to extract an image from a PowerPoint file. This method is useful if you only want to save one or two images from your PowerPoint presentation.
Step 1: Open the PowerPoint presentation from which you want to save images.
Step 2: Locate and select the image you want to extract. Right-click on it and choose the Save as Picture option.
Step 3: In the Save As Picture dialog, specify where you want to save the image. Then, click the drop-down menu next to Save as type to select your preferred file format for the image.
Step 4: Click the arrow next to the Save button and select Save Original Picture to export the high-resolution image.
You can repeat the above steps to extract more images if you like.
Alternatively, if you want to use the image in another program on your PC, right-click on the image in your presentation and select Copy . After that, move to the program where you want to use the file and press the Ctrl + V keyboard shortcut to paste the image.
Method 2: Save the PowerPoint Slides as Images
While the “Save as Picture” option makes it easy to save images from your PowerPoint file, it’s not the most efficient method if you are looking to extract all the images from your PowerPoint presentation. In that case, it’s better to save your PowerPoint slides as images (in JPEG or PNG format ) using the steps below.
Step 1: Open the PowerPoint file from which you want to save images.
Step 2: Click the File menu in the top-left corner.
Step 3: Select Save As from the left pane. Then, click the Browse button.
Step 4: Click the drop-down menu next to Save as type to select JPEG File Interchangeable Format or PNG Portable Network Graphics Format from the list.
Step 5: Click the Save button.
Step 6: Select All Slides when the prompt appears.
After you complete the above steps, all the images within your presentation will be saved separately in the specified location.
Method 3: Add a ZIP Extension to the Presentation File and Extract It
Another way to save all the images from a PowerPoint file simultaneously involves converting the presentation into a ZIP file and then extracting the file on your computer. This method allows you to save all of the images in your presentation in their original format.
Step 1: Press the Windows key + E to open File Explorer and locate the PowerPoint from which you want to save images.
Step 2: Right-click on your file and select the Rename option.
Step 3: Replace the PPTX or PPTM extension with the ZIP extension. Select Yes when the confirmation prompt appears.
Step 4: Right-click on the renamed file and select Extract All .
Step 5: Use the Browse button to select a location where you want to extract the file and click Extract .
Step 6: Navigate to the folder where you extracted the ZIP file and double-click the ppt folder.
Step 7: Double-click the media folder to view all the images extracted from your presentation in their original format.
Once you have all the images, you can rename the ZIP file and add the PPTX or PPTM extension to recover your original presentation.
