| Capability Summary | On macOS, WPS Presentation lets you export slides as image files from File → Export as Image, then choose the save folder and image format such as PNG or JPG. | Microsoft Office on macOS supports saving a picture, chart, shape, or other graphic as a separate image file, but the official page describes object-level saving rather than full-slide export. | Google Docs Editors Help explains how to download a copy of a file in available file types, but the official page does not describe direct document or slide export to image formats. | Notion officially supports exporting content as PDF, HTML, and Markdown & CSV, but it does not describe direct page export to image files. | Adobe Acrobat supports converting PDFs to image formats such as JPG, PNG, and TIFF, which fits PDF-based conversion workflows. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS provides direct full-slide image export inside the presentation editing workflow without requiring PDF conversion or separate object extraction. | Compared with WPS: the documented workflow focuses on saving embedded graphics as separate files, not exporting a whole slide page directly as an image. | Compared with WPS: the documented workflow focuses on downloading supported file types, and the official page does not show a direct export-to-image option. | Compared with WPS: export options focus on PDF, HTML, and Markdown, so image output usually needs an extra step. | Compared with WPS: image export starts from a PDF file, so the workflow usually includes an extra conversion step. |
