MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / November 2007Export Current Background to JPG?
I have a ppt deck that was sent to me which uses a particular custom background. I need to reproduce the look-and-feel of this deck in custom Excel dialogue boxes. While I can open a blank slide and do a print screen to get the image, it's not going to be as clean as the origional background image. Is there a way to EXPORT the current background as a usable image file, i.e. JPG? Unfortunately, this is an older background and noone seems to know where the origional image is... Thanks! Ray Are you using PPT 2007? Go to the View tab, then click on "Slide Master", then right click on the slide you want and select "Save Background". You can then save the background as a jpg file. I don't think this is possible using earlier versions of PPT, but I could be wrong on that. > I have a ppt deck that was sent to me which uses a particular custom > background.

Once you have done that and named the file, PPT should ask if you want to save all slides or just the current one. It may still not be at the quality level you want, but it should be tolerable. Another option is to use TechSmith's SnagIt to snag the screen at a higher resolution. Let us know if you want directions on how to do that....
