How to Save a Picture From a PowerPoint
If you've created a PowerPoint presentation with pictures that took a long time to compile, or if you would like to keep the photos to use again, you can easily save them to your computer as separate image files outside of PowerPoint. PowerPoint can save your images in a variety of common image formats that are compatible with word processing or desktop publishing software, social network websites or even photo editing software.
