Ever found the perfect image within Google Slides and wondered, “How to save the image?” In this guide, we’ll show you the steps to save an image in Google Slides to keep using them in other presentations or even for personal use. Stay tuned so this becomes a piece of cake!
Methods to Save an Image from Google Slides
Saving an image from Google Slides is relatively easy, and depending on your needs, you can do it in several ways. Here’s how:
Method 1: Right-click and Save
This is the easiest method, but works only for some images, particularly when it seems like part of a background.
- Open your Google Slides presentation and go to the slide with the image you want to save.
- Right-click on the image. If you’re on a Mac, you can Control + Click.
- In the drop-down menu, choose either “Save to Keep” or “Save as Image.” If the option “Save as Image” is available, you can easily download it directly to your computer.
Method 2: Using Google Keep
If the “Save as Image” option doesn’t work, then Google Keep is a good alternative.
- Right-click on the image and from the options that appear, select “Save to Keep”. This will open the sidebar on Google Keep with your image saved as a note.
- Right-click on the image in the Keep sidebar and navigate to “Save as Image”. This step will download the image to your computer.
Method 3: Download the Whole Slide as an Image
If you need to save the entire slide with the photo as an image, then these directions will be good for you.
- Navigate to the slide containing your image.
- Click on “File” at the top left corner, hover over “Download,” and click on “PNG Image” or “JPEG Image.” This saves the entire slide with all text or other objects on it in the image format.
Note: This will work best when you want to have the entire slide or cannot save the image directly.
Conclusion
Whether it is for future use with other presentations or for personal projects, it is always good to know how to save an image from Google Slides. The easy methods here will allow you to easily pull a visual from slides for later repurposing elsewhere. Give them a shot the next time you come across that perfect image in your presentation.
