Convert Presentation Template with Images to PDF
Presentation templates with images, diagrams, and graphics need those visual elements to export clearly in the PDF. The Docs to PDF extension preserves images at the resolution they were inserted, using Google's own rendering engine.
Image export quality
Presentation templates with photos and diagrams export images at their inserted resolution. High-resolution images produce clear PDFs suitable for printing. Low-resolution images will appear at the same quality as in the Google Doc. Use high-resolution source images in the template for the best PDF output.
Diagrams and process charts
Diagrams created with Google Drawings or inserted as images export correctly. If the diagram was created in a third-party tool and pasted as an image, it exports at the resolution it was pasted. For sharp output, export the diagram at high resolution from the source tool before inserting into the Google Doc.
File size management
Presentations with many high-resolution images produce large PDF files. For email distribution, aim for under 5MB. Resize large images in the Google Doc before exporting to reduce the output file size.
Frequently Asked Questions
