Sometimes a full file is more than you need. A single slide with the quarterly chart, one page of a PDF with the signature table, a deck reduced to pictures for a wiki — that is what PNG export is for. Rixoffice turns slides into images and PDF pages into images with a couple of clicks, entirely offline.
Exporting slides as PNG
RixSlides exports the visual result of each slide — exactly what the canvas renders, backgrounds, charts, SmartArt and all — as PNG image files:
- Open the deck in RixSlides.
- Choose the PNG export option from the File menu.
- Select the current slide or the entire deck.
- Pick a destination folder and export.
- Use the images anywhere PNG works: documents, wikis, issue trackers, chat threads, email.
The output matches what you see on the canvas because it comes from the same high-fidelity rendering the app uses on screen. Nothing is re-laid-out or approximated in the process.
Choosing the right export format
| You need | Export |
|---|---|
| The whole deck, fixed and printable | |
| One slide as a picture for a doc or wiki | PNG |
| A page from a PDF as an image | PDF page to image |
| A deck colleagues can still edit | .pptx (native save) |
PNG export is the surgical tool: it moves one visual at a time to wherever pictures are accepted. PDF remains the format for handing over complete, unchangeable documents — both are covered in the PDF and PNG export guide.
Turning PDF pages into images
The PDF Editor includes page-to-image export. Open the PDF, choose the page, export as PNG. Typical uses:
- Pull the signed signature page out of a contract to attach to an email.
- Grab a diagram page from a manual for a training slide.
- Embed a scanned form into a report you are writing in RixDocs.
- Drop a page snapshot into a chat to answer a question quickly.
Together with slide export, this covers the everyday case of "I just need that one page as a picture."
Practical uses for slide images
- Documentation — embed the architecture slide directly into a README or design doc.
- Reporting — paste the results slide into a status email instead of attaching the whole deck.
- Social and internal comms — a single announcement slide travels further as an image than as a file.
- Feedback loops — send one slide as an image for a quick review instead of the full deck.
A few tips for clean exports
- Check the slide before exporting: hide presenter-only notes and move scratch content off the canvas.
- Export from the final theme — dark-background slides export exactly as they look, which may or may not suit a white document page.
- Name exported files by slide number or topic; a folder of slide-01.png, slide-02.png is far easier to use later.
- Remember the editable original: the .pptx stays untouched by image export, so you can refine and re-export any time.
PNG export uses no AI credits on any plan — it is a plain local operation, like saving.
