Saving individual pictures from a powerpoint slideshow

G

Guest

Hi there

Someone sent me an email with a .pps file attachment that contains a
slideshow of wonderful pictures. I want to save the individual pictures from
that slideshow so that I can view only the pictures that I want to... is this
possible?

Thanks

Raj

First, open PowerPoint.
Then, click File > Open. Look for the .pps file.
Click File > Save As.
Under Save as type, select Webpage.
Look into the output folder for all the pictures.

Is that what you want?

If you have the full version of PowerPoint, you can do as tohlz suggests But
if your just using the PowerPoint viewer, then I'm afraid your out of luck,
other than trying to do a screen capture from each slide and pasting into a
paint program

No, just wanted to save the individual pictures as .jpg or .jpeg into a
folder and then use "view as thumbnails" option to select and view... thanks

Hi Michael... how can I check if I have got a full version or just the

What PowerPoint version are you using?
If you are using 2002/XP and above,
Open PowerPoint first.
Then click File > Open. Look for the .pps file. Click Open.
Look into the slides for pictures that you want to save.
Right click on these pictures, select Save as Picture.
Then, save the picture into a folder.

Thanks, Tohlz... it's working that way... only that I'll have 72 pictures to
do... I suppose that there isn't a shortcut way to do that! Never mind if
there isn't; at least there's a way! Thanks very much...

If you follow my first post to save it as a webpage, the pictures will all be
in the output folder. You will just need to drag all the pictures you want
into another folder, or delete all the unwanted pictures and files. This will
make life easier ;)

You should be saving it as a webpage, not a "Single File Web Page". After
saving it as a webpage, there should be an output folder. Open it and drag
out all the pictures you want into another folder.

Does this help?

What I did instead was... I opened the file from PPT viewer and then I
selected all the slides at one go and then I used Save As "JPEG File
interchange format" and then it automatically saved individual pictures into
a folder of the same name as the original PPS file... wonderful... is that
what you wanted me to do? Thanks so much... all's well now

That should do the trick if the pictures are covering the entire slide.
But if it doesn't, you will need to save it as a webpage like what I have
posted earlier on.
By the way, if you can create or edit presentations, you are using full
version of PowerPoint. PowerPoint viewer only allows you to view and print
presentations.
