Frequently Asked Questions

🤔 Why can't I extract images from my PowerPoint file?

Several factors could cause this issue:

  • File format: Ensure your file is saved as .pptx (not .ppt or .pdf)
  • No embedded images: Some presentations only contain shapes, text, or linked images
  • Corrupted file: Try re-saving your presentation and uploading again
  • File size: Files over 100MB may not process correctly

📱 Can I use SlideScraper on my phone or tablet?

Yes! SlideScraper is fully responsive and works on all devices. However, for best performance with large files (over 20MB), we recommend using a desktop or laptop computer. Mobile browsers may take longer to process very large presentations due to memory limitations.

🔒 Is my data safe? Do you store my files?

Your data is completely safe. SlideScraper processes everything locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your files never leave your device - they're not uploaded to our servers or stored anywhere. This privacy-first approach ensures complete confidentiality of your presentations and extracted images.

📁 What image formats does SlideScraper support?

SlideScraper can extract all image formats commonly embedded in PowerPoint files, including:

  • JPG/JPEG - photographs and compressed images
  • PNG - high-quality images with transparency
  • GIF - animated images and graphics
  • SVG - scalable vector graphics
  • WebP - modern web-optimized format
  • BMP, TIFF - uncompressed formats

💼 Can I use this for business presentations?

Absolutely! SlideScraper is perfect for business use. Many professionals use it to extract logos, charts, product images, and marketing assets from client presentations, sales decks, and company materials. Since processing happens locally, it's ideal for confidential business documents.

🎨 How do I extract images from Google Slides?

Google Slides requires a simple conversion step:

  1. Open your Google Slides presentation
  2. Click File → Download → Microsoft PowerPoint (.pptx)
  3. Save the downloaded .pptx file to your computer
  4. Upload the .pptx file to SlideScraper
  5. Extract images as normal

🔍 Can I filter or search for specific images?

Yes! SlideScraper includes powerful filtering options:

  • Search by slide number: Find images from specific slides (e.g., "5" or "3-7")
  • Filter by file type: Show only JPG, PNG, or other specific formats
  • Filter by file size: Set minimum size to exclude tiny images
  • Sort options: Order by slide number, file size, or file type

💰 Is SlideScraper really free?

Yes, completely free! No subscriptions, no hidden fees, no premium features, and no account required. SlideScraper was created to solve a real problem and will always remain free. The tool is supported by minimal, non-intrusive advertising that doesn't interfere with functionality.

⚡ Why is my large file taking a long time to process?

Processing time depends on file size and complexity. Files over 10MB may take 30-60 seconds, while files over 50MB could take several minutes. This is normal because all processing happens in your browser. For faster results, consider optimizing your presentation by compressing images before creating the .pptx file.

The Complete PowerPoint Image Management Guide

Understanding PowerPoint File Structure

PowerPoint .pptx files are actually compressed ZIP archives containing a specific folder structure. Understanding this structure helps explain how image extraction works and why certain limitations exist.

Inside a .pptx File:

  • /ppt/media/ - Contains all embedded images
  • /ppt/slides/ - Slide content and layout information
  • /ppt/slideLayouts/ - Template and theme information
  • /_rels/ - Relationship mappings between files
  • [Content_Types].xml - File type definitions

This modular structure allows SlideScraper to directly access the media folder and extract all images without needing to process the entire presentation layout. This approach is both faster and more reliable than trying to screenshot individual slides.

📸 Photo Images (JPEG)

Best for: Photographs, complex images with many colors

File sizes: Usually 100KB-5MB depending on quality

Quality tip: JPEG images in PowerPoint are often compressed. For print materials, request higher resolution originals when possible.

🎨 Graphics (PNG)

Best for: Logos, icons, graphics with transparency

File sizes: 10KB-2MB for most graphics

Quality tip: PNG maintains perfect quality and supports transparent backgrounds, making it ideal for logo extraction.

📊 Vector Graphics (SVG)

Best for: Charts, diagrams, scalable illustrations

File sizes: Usually very small (1-50KB)

Quality tip: SVG images scale infinitely without quality loss, perfect for web use and print at any size.

🎯 Best Practices for Image Extraction

Before Extracting

  • Ensure images are embedded, not linked to external files
  • Save your presentation as .pptx (not .ppt or .pps)
  • Compress large images in PowerPoint if file size is over 50MB
  • Note slide numbers of images you specifically need

During Extraction

  • Use slide number filtering for large presentations
  • Set minimum file size filter to exclude tiny thumbnails
  • Preview images before downloading to verify quality
  • Check file formats - PNG for graphics, JPEG for photos

🔧 Advanced Troubleshooting

Problem: No images found in my presentation

Possible causes: Linked images instead of embedded, shapes/text-only slides, corrupted file structure

Solutions: Re-save as .pptx, check if images are actually embedded by right-clicking in PowerPoint, try compressing images in PowerPoint first

Problem: Poor image quality after extraction

Possible causes: Images were compressed when inserted into PowerPoint, low-resolution originals used

Solutions: Extract from the original high-resolution presentation, check PowerPoint's image compression settings, request original source files if you're not the creator

Problem: Large file processing very slowly

Possible causes: File over 50MB, many high-resolution images, limited browser memory

Solutions: Close other browser tabs, use desktop computer instead of mobile, split large presentations into smaller files, compress images in PowerPoint before extraction

Expert Tips & Advanced Techniques

💡

Bulk Processing Multiple Files

For organizations with hundreds of presentations, process files systematically by department or date range. Use consistent naming conventions for extracted images to build searchable asset libraries.

Pro tip: Keep a spreadsheet tracking which presentations you've processed and where extracted images are stored.

🎨

Optimizing Image Quality

Before creating your PowerPoint presentation, insert images at their original high resolution. PowerPoint's compression settings can be adjusted under File → Options → Advanced → Image Size and Quality.

Pro tip: Set "Do not compress images in file" for presentations where you plan to extract images later.

🔍

Finding Hidden Images

Presentations sometimes contain images in slide masters, notes pages, or hidden slides that aren't visible during normal viewing. SlideScraper extracts all images regardless of their location within the presentation structure.

Pro tip: If you find unexpected images, check PowerPoint's slide master view or notes pages for their original context.

⚡

Speed Optimization

For fastest processing, close unnecessary browser tabs, disable browser extensions temporarily, and use an incognito/private window. This frees up memory and processing power for large files.

Pro tip: Chrome's Task Manager (Shift+Esc) can help identify memory-heavy tabs to close before processing large files.

📁

Organizing Extracted Files

Create a folder structure on your computer before extraction: Project/Client name → Presentation date → Image type (logos, photos, charts). This makes it easier to find specific images later.

Pro tip: Use the slide number information in filenames to maintain the original sequence and context of images.

🔄

Format Conversion Strategy

Different projects need different image formats. Extract PNG files for logos and graphics that need transparency, JPEG for photographs, and SVG for scalable illustrations that will be resized.

Pro tip: Use the file type filter to quickly separate different formats for specific use cases (web, print, social media).
