Figma slides is great! One thing that our team has been missing since we’ve been using it is an option to export to .ppt. Our team works a lot on decks for external clients and we would love to use Figma Slides to do that.

Hey @Dennis_Weisscher,

No exact timeline to provide right now from the team, but we’ll let you know if we ever hear from the Slides team on its progress.

We have a lot of customers who need our files in PPT format, please.

+1 to everything here. I got excited and dove in for a couple of hours and then tried to export->import into Google Slides. Love the experience so far, but the limited export options makes this DOA for me and my teams.

Indeed, it is a powerful tool, but the ability to export directly to .ppt would be a game-changer for teams like yours. It would streamline collaboration with external clients and make sharing decks much easier. Hopefully, Figma considers adding this feature soon!

I created a free plugin for this (powerpoint/keynote), currently waiting for Figma team to allow me to publish it (right now slides plugins cannot be published for review)

That’s amazing, man! Are the layers preserved when importing it to Google Slides or other?

Thanks @Mike98. I have been trying to preserve layers as much as I can but some nodes don’t port over nicely so I converted them to SVG.

Depending on the demand for this I could also add more features such as translating the Figma transitions to powerpoint transitions.

I am super excited about this tool! Unfortunately my team wont be able to integrate it into our process until we can natively import and export editable Powerpoint (.ppt) files. I don’t like Powerpoint, but thats just the corporate standard. Hopefully Figma can integrate the two, and truly start shifting the industry standard!
