About This Feature
Overview
Export as Video is a presentation export feature in WPS Office for Mac that lets you turn the current presentation into a video file for playback, sharing, and asynchronous viewing.
Core tasks include:
- Export a presentation as a video from the File menu for a standard workflow.
- Open the same export flow from the Premium tab for quick access from the ribbon.
This feature works well for training videos, proposal walkthroughs, event playback, and presentation sharing. After export, the content is easier to play on devices that do not need presentation software.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Supports exporting a presentation directly to a video on Mac, with output location and video quality settings in the same flow. | PowerPoint for Mac supports exporting a presentation as MP4 or MOV from File > Export, with video quality and timing options. | Google Slides supports recording a presentation and saving the recording to Drive, and Google Vids can turn Slides into video scenes, but Slides does not present the same direct standard video export flow. | Notion supports uploading and embedding video files for playback and sharing, but it is not a presentation app with a direct presentation-to-video export workflow. | Adobe Acrobat focuses on PDF and PowerPoint conversion workflows, such as PDF to PPT and PPT to PDF, rather than direct presentation-to-video export. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: You can start video export directly from the presentation interface. Distinct: Output location and video quality are handled in one focused workflow, which is convenient when you need to export presentation to video on Mac quickly. | Compared with WPS: It also supports video export, but Microsoft notes version and subscription requirements for some Mac video export scenarios. | Compared with WPS: Its workflow is more centered on recording or converting Slides into Google Vids scenes, so the path is less direct when you need a presentation video file. | Compared with WPS: It is better suited to organizing and presenting content on pages, not exporting slide decks as video files. | Compared with WPS: It is stronger for document conversion and PDF workflows, not for turning a slide presentation into a video file directly. |

Overall Conclusion: If your goal is to export presentation to video on Mac in a direct desktop workflow, WPS provides a straightforward path. Microsoft offers a similar export option, while Google, Notion, and Adobe are oriented more toward recording, embedding, or file conversion scenarios.
