Here, we discuss how to download Google Slides — in multiple ways.

How To Download a Google Slides Presentation with Audio

When you download a Google Slides Presentation with Audio as a PPT (PowerPoint) file, you’ll see the speaker icon, but the audio won’t transfer to the new file. To resolve this issue, you’ll need to manually download the audio from the Google Slides presentation and re-insert it in the PPT file. Here’s how to do it:

• Go to the Slide where you’ve inserted the audio.
• Left-click on the speaker icon to select it. An audio bar should appear.

• Right-click the audio bar, then select the “Save audio as”  option.

• Download the Google Slides presentation by going to “ File ” > “ Download .” Choose “ Microsoft PowerPoint (.ppt) ” from the list of file types.

• Open the PowerPoint presentation.
• Delete the original speaker object from the Google Slides presentation by left-clicking on it and pressing Ctrl + X  on Windows (or Command + X) to delete it.

• Select “ Insert ”  > “ Audio .”

• A window will pop up and ask you to select an audio file. Open the audio file that you’ve downloaded from the Google Slides presentation.
• Choose the position of the new speaker icon in your PowerPoint presentation. You can do so by left-clicking anywhere on the slide.

Downloading a Google Slide as a PDF Using the Print Option

Downloading a Google Slide presentation as a PDF is useful if you need to share or print your slides in a format that’s universally accessible (while retaining the formatting of the original presentation).

To download a Google Slide as a PDF using the print option:

• Open your Google Slides Presentation.
• Select “ File ”  > “ Print.”

• Under the “Printer ” drop-down list, choose either “ Save as PDF ” or “ Microsoft Print to PDF .”

• Click on “ Print .”

Note: By default, each slide in your presentation will be printed on one sheet without changing the default print settings.  To customize your print settings (like printing multiple slides per page), you’ll need to adjust the options.

How To Download a Protected Google Slides Presentation

No option in Google Slides allows users to download or convert shared export-protected files. Luckily, there’s a way around this — and it’s just as easy as downloading one of your presentations.

• Copy the link to the Google Slides presentation and paste it into your browser’s address bar.
• At the end of the link, you will see the text “ edit?usp=sharing .” Highlight this section of the link and delete it.

• Replace the deleted text with “ export/pptx ” and press “ Enter .”

• Your download will automatically start. The contents of the shared protected Google Slides will be available in .pptx format.
• To open the PowerPoint file, go to your browser’s downloads tab and select “Open File .”

How To Download Embedded Google Slides Presentation from a Website

Downloading an embedded Google Slides presentation from a website requires using JavaScript codes. This may seem complicated if you’re unfamiliar with them, but all you have to do is copy and paste codes into your browser.

Here’s an easy guide on how to download embedded Google Slides Presentation from a website:

• Open your browser and create a bookmark with the name “ Open Google Slides .”

k.setAttribute(“href”,n.getAttribute(“src”));

k.setAttribute(“target”,”_blank”);

k.setAttribute(“style”,”display:block”);

k.innerText = “Open Google Slides”;

n.parentElement.insertBefore(k,n);

• Create another bookmark with the name “ Extract Slides .” After naming it, click on the “ More ” button and paste the following code into the URL field:

Javascript: var atag = “punch-viewer-content”, btag = “-caption”, ctag = “aria-setsize”, dtag = “aria-posinset”, msvg = document.getElementsByTagName(“svg”), node = document.querySelectorAll(‘[class$=”‘ + btag + ‘”]’)[0], view = document.getElementsByClassName(atag)[0], size = node.getAttribute(ctag), data = “”, func = () => { data += msvg[0].outerHTML; if((i = node.getAttribute(dtag))==size) document.write(data); else view.click(), setTimeout(func,10) }; func()

• Once you’ve completed these steps, download embedded presentations from websites by clicking on the “ Open Google Slides ” bookmark. This will open an accessible link above the embedded presentation.

• Click on “ Email this file .”
• Enter the email address where you wish to send the presentation. You can also tick the “ Send yourself a copy ” checkbox to keep a paper trail.

Multiple photo uploads at a time would make it better.

I use google slides for all of my classroom presentations. I also have my students use google slides to keep track of the artwork like a ongoing portfolio. The app makes it easy to drop single photos into the slide show without having to download photos or email them to yourself first. My only complaint about the app is that you cannot upload more than one photo at a time from your camera roll. I take a lot of photos of artwork for my students and shuffling through hundreds of photos to get to things I took months ago can take a long time-it would be so helpful to be able to click on several photos at a time. I do the majority of my editing of my slides on a computer, I could edit from my phone but it is easier to fine tune things on a full computer. I primarily use the app to transfer the photos to my slides.

Too many bugs on iPad & iPhone

I make a lot of things on google slides, so I thought the iPhone version would help me out… WRONG! This version of the software is very very buggy and limited! You can’t search the web to find photos, you have to screenshot them yourself! So many good features on the desktop version are thrown away for the App Store version!!! I would think that this was a rip-off made my different people if I didn’t know better!! Don’t get me started on the bugs, because they are horrible. Sometimes your work doesn’t save, which means you need to do everything AGAIN, which isn’t even that bad compared to clicking on things. If you click on something, for example, a shape, it’ll click on something far below or higher then where your finger actually was!! The worst part of all of this is the fact that they don’t even read any of these reviews! None of these problems have been fixed!!! So, to the person reading this I’d like to say, DON’T WASTE YOUR STORAGE ON THIS APP!!!! Update: So for the first time ever, a few things were fixed. Luckily enough, I actually did get a response, and they have fixed a few bugs and added a few new features. HOWEVER they still need to fix a lot of things and add more features

Developer Response ,

Hi there. We suggest you refresh the app: Settings - Slides - Background App Refresh. Also, thanks for sharing your valuable feedback. We'll pass this along to our team. Appreciate it!

Not optimized for the iPad.

You cant change the background color, only the theme, you have limited color options for text and gradient. No, you can't create your own colors. You can't animate text and its hard to put pictures and text on different layers(ie. send to back/send to front). This feels like something to be used alongside the computer version instead of standalone. I only have my iPad for school work and i haven't been supplied technology so im just stuck. I have to ask other people who have computers to borrow theirs just to change the colors on my background and create custom colors and add them to my theme. THIS IS AN ACCESORY NOT A FULL ITEM. The thing is, this could be easily fixed. This worst laptops can run google sliders so Performance issues isn't the issue. A phone or an iPad, especially the big and chunky ones, can totally handle a fully optimized google slides. Proof? Canva and powerdirector. They have so much stuff and great functionality, but most importantly, they have a fully optimized service that's the same on the ipad and computer(except for the fact that some of the functions are different). This is just pure laziness, and im sick of it.

How to Download Google Slides Presentation [Complete Guide!]

By: Author Shrot Katewa

If you are a Google Slides user, you probably already know that Google Slides works on cloud storage. Meaning that your presentation files are stored online and can be accessed using just a browser. You no longer need to carry the physical file on a thumb drive. But, what if you intentionally need to save a Google Slides presentation? In that case, how do you download a Google Slides presentation?

To download a Google Slides presentation, simply open the presentation file in your browser. Then, click on the “File” menu and select the “Download” option. Choose the format (such as .pptx, .pdf, etc) in which you need to download the file, and save the presentation on your computer.

While that’s just a quick explanation, if you need a detailed step-by-step pictorial description, continue reading as I will be sharing the same below in the article. Plus, I will also share with ninja tips that will allow you to download just the audio or even a protected presentation to your computer!

So, let’s get started!

A Quick Note Before We Begin – if you want to make jaw-dropping presentations, I would recommend using one of these Presentation Designs . The best part is – it is only $16.5 a month, but you get to download and use as many presentation designs as you like! I personally use it from time-to-time, and it makes my task of making beautiful presentations really quick and easy!

1. How to Download a Google Slides Presentation?

It is a bit tricky to download all the google slides into images since there is no ready option to do so. In any case, I will show you how to do it step-by-step below;

Step-1: Open the “Download” option from the “File” tab

When the Google Slides window is open on your computer screen, you can find the “File” tab in the top left corner of your screen. Open the “Download” option.

2. How to Download Google Slides Presentation with Audio?

By going to the “insert” tab, there is the “Audio” option in the top right part of the screen as shown in the figure

By clicking on the “Audio” option in your presentation, a pop-up window will appear. Select the audio downloaded for the presentation and hit “Insert”

Step-5: Re-arrange the position of the speaker icon

By inserting the audio into your presentation, an audio icon will appear at the center of the screen. Reposition the icon and you’re all set. This is just an optional step.

3. How to Download a Protected Google Slides Presentation?

There are no easy ways to download protected google slides presentations to your computer. There is no available direct links or download buttons. But there is a simple way of generating a direct download link from shared or protected files. Each step of the process is described below:

Step-1: Click on the Protected Google Slides presentation URL

https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/FILE_ID/ edit?usp=sharing

There is a link in the URL box located at the upper part of your browser. The link should look something like the link above

Step-2: Select the “edit?usp=sharing” part of the URL

The first step is to create a bookmark named “Open Google Slides” on your preferred browser. Simply click the star mark on the right corner of your url box (for Google Chrome) and change the name of the bookmark to ‘Open Google Slides’.

Step-2:  Paste the JavaScript code in the url section.

With a click on the “More” option, there will be a pop-up box for you to paste a url. Paste the following code into the url box.

Copy and Paste the code mentioned below – javascript: var n = document.querySelectorAll(‘iframe[src*=docs\\.google]’)[0], k = document.createElement(“a”); k.setAttribute(“href”,n.getAttribute(“src”)); k.setAttribute(“target”,”_blank”); k.setAttribute(“style”,”display:block”); k.innerText = “Open Google Slides”; n.parentElement.insertBefore(k,n);

Step-3: Make a similar bookmark with the name “Extract Slides”

Simillar to the last step, another bookmark make another bookmark, but name it ‘Extract Slides’ and instead of the previous code, paste the following code on the url box:

Copy and Paste the below-mentioned code – javascript: var atag = “punch-viewer-content”,     btag = “-caption”,     ctag = “aria-setsize”,     dtag = “aria-posinset”,     msvg = document.getElementsByTagName(“svg”),     node = document.querySelectorAll(‘[class$=”‘ + btag + ‘”]’)[0],     view = document.getElementsByClassName(atag)[0],     size = node.getAttribute(ctag),     data = “”,     func = () => {       data += msvg[0].outerHTML;       if((i = node.getAttribute(dtag))==size) document.write(data);       else view.click(), setTimeout(func,10)     }; func()

5. How to Download a Google Slides Presentation Published to the Web

When there is no direct link to downloading a google slides presentation in a website, it can be frustrating to find complex ways to download it. But I will show you a simple way of creating a direct download link. The process is described below.

Step-1: Scroll to the last character of the shared protected google slide presentation URL

There is a link in the URL box located at the upper part of your browser. The link should look something like the link below:

In the link select the part of the URL that I intentionally made bold, to explain the process.

Upon selecting the bold part of the URL, write “export/pptx” in its place. The URL should look like the link showcased above. 

Step-4: Open the new link
