Export
Save to Google Drive — PDF, PowerPoint & Word
Send any finished deck straight to your Google Drive — as a PDF, an editable PowerPoint, or a Word document, in one click.
Export a deck or document to Drive as PDF, PowerPoint (.pptx), or Word (.docx) without leaving Decks.
It lands in your own Drive, ready to share or hand off — no download-then-re-upload shuffle.
Same drive.file privacy as import: Decks only writes the file it creates and never touches the rest of your Drive.
Finish here, not in a downloads folder
Send a finished deck straight to your Google Drive
When a deck or A4 document is done, you rarely want it sitting in your Downloads folder — you want it in Drive, where your team already works. Save to Google Drive does exactly that: pick a format — a print-ready PDF, an editable PowerPoint (.pptx), or a Word (.docx) document — and Decks renders it and drops it straight into your own Drive in one click. No download, no re-upload, no dragging a file between tabs. And it runs on the very same non-sensitive drive.file scope as Google import: Decks only ever writes the one file it creates, and never touches anything else in your Drive.
Live preview
Pick a format, and watch it land in Drive
Choose PDF, PowerPoint, or Word and press Save to Drive — the file appears in your My Drive, ready to open. Everything already in your Drive stays untouched: drive.file lets Decks write the single file it just created, and nothing more. PDF is free for every owner; the editable PowerPoint and Word formats are on the Pro plan and up.
How it works
From a finished deck to a file in Drive
Finish your deck or document
Build or generate a deck or an A4 document and refine it until it’s ready. Save to Drive works on both — a deck or a document — the same way.
Pick a format
Open the export menu, choose Save to Google Drive, then the format you want: a print-ready PDF, an editable PowerPoint (.pptx) for a deck, or a Word (.docx) for a document.
Approve Google once
The first time, Google asks you to allow Decks to add its file to your Drive — the non-sensitive drive.file scope. Decks receives a short-lived access token, never your password, and the token is never stored.
It lands in your Drive
Decks renders the file to match your live preview exactly and uploads it to your own Drive. You get a link to open it in Drive right away — ready to share, move, or hand off.
Where teams use it
The file, right where your team works
- Team handoff
Straight into a shared Drive
Save the finished deck to a Drive folder your team already shares, so the file is where colleagues expect it — no emailing an attachment, no “can you re-upload that?”
- Client delivery
A clean file to hand over
Drop a print-ready PDF or an editable Word contract into Drive and share it from there — versioned, findable, and out of your local Downloads folder.
- Archive & backup
Keep every version in Drive
Send each round to Drive as you go, so approved decks and signed documents live in your own storage — alongside the sealed versions Decks keeps on the record.
Why it matters
Your work belongs in your Drive — not a downloads folder
A finished file that only lives in your Downloads folder is a file you’ll lose track of. Save to Google Drive puts it where your work actually lives: pick PDF, PowerPoint, or Word, and the file lands in your own Drive in one click — ready to share, move into a team folder, or archive. And it asks for almost nothing to do it. Built on the same non-sensitive drive.file scope as Google import, Decks can only write the single file it creates; it can’t read, list, or touch anything else in your Drive. The access token is short-lived and never stored. You get the convenience of “export straight to Drive” without handing over your whole account.
