How to export PowerPoint slides as high-resolution images

How to change the export resolution setting

You only need to update a single value in the Windows Registry Editor once, and every future export will be in full resolution.

Step 1: Change the export resolution setting

1. Close PowerPoint and other Windows-based programs.
2. Right-click the Start button and select "Run".
3. Type `regedit` in the Open box and click "OK".

4. Navigate to the PowerPoint registry subkey. Depending on your PowerPoint version, it will most likely be at:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\PowerPoint\Options

5. Right-click the Options subkey, select "New", then "DWORD (32-bit) Value". Name the new value `ExportBitmapResolution` and press Enter.

6. Double-click the `ExportBitmapResolution` value you just created.

In the Value dialog, select "Decimal" and enter `300` in the data box — that's 300 DPI (the highest resolution). Click "OK".

7. Exit the Registry Editor and restart your computer.

Step 2: Export your slide as a high-resolution image

1. Open the PowerPoint presentation you want to export.
2. Go to `File > Save As`.
3. Choose a location for the file.
4. In the "Save as type" box, select an image format (e.g. JPEG).
5. Click "Save" and choose "Just This Slide" or "All Slides".

Your exported slides will now be in full resolution — perfect for detailed prints and high-quality displays. You can double-check by right-clicking any exported JPEG and viewing the "Details" tab.
