If youve ever created a slide in Google Slides that you wanted to use as an image in another presentation or document, then you may have wondered how to save Google Slides as images.

Creating a slide in Google Slides presents you with the ability to add images, text, and other elements. This can be a simple alternative to more complicated and expensive options for creating things like newsletters and flyers.

But after you have created your file in Google Slides, you might need to convert it to a format that is easier to share with a printing company, or post on a website. One easy way to do this is to convert a slide to an image. Fortunately you can do this directly in Google Slides, which will let you create a JPEG or PNG file that you can then upload to whatever site or service you need.

How to Save Google Slides as Images

  1. Open your Slides file.
  2. Choose the slide to save as an image.
  3. Click File.
  4. Select Download.
  5. Choose JPEG or PNG.

Our guide continues below with additional information and pictures for these steps.

How to Download a Google Slide as a Picture

The steps in this article were performed in the desktop version of the Google Slides application. These steps are going to show you how to select a slide from your Google Slides presentation and save it as a picture. Note that you can only do one slide as a time. If you would like to do all of the slides at once, then you might have better luck downloading as a Powerpoint file or a PDF, then converting that file to all images.

Step 1: Sign into Google Drive and open the Google Slides file containing the slide you wish to save as a picture.

Step 2: Select the slide to convert to an image from the list of slides at the left side of the window.

The image file will then download to your computer, where you can do whatever you like with that file. Note that the original slide will remain in the original Slides presentation file.

The downloaded image file, whether you chose the JPEG or the PNG option, can be used or edited in the same way that you would work with any other type of image file. So, for example, if you wanted to use that slide image in a document, you could simply choose to insert it as a picture.

Since Google Slides only saves the current slide as an image you would need to repeat this process for each additional slide in your presentation that you would like to convert to an image.
