Ampler saves or emails just the slides you select, as PowerPoint, PDF, PDF with notes, or all three — so you send the right subset in the right format without splitting the deck by hand.
Quick answer: Select the slides, click Save As (Ctrl+Shift+S) or Email (Ctrl+Shift+X) on the Ampler ribbon, choose the format, name the file, and click Save or Send.
How to use it
Select slides, choose the format, then save or email just those slides.
- Select the slides you want — or none, to include the whole deck.
- Click Save As (Ctrl+Shift+S) or Email (Ctrl+Shift+X) on the Ampler ribbon.
- Choose the format — PowerPoint, PDF, PDF with notes, or all three — and a date format for the file name.
- Type the file name and click Save As, Send, or press Enter.
Selecting slides first exports only those; the rest of the deck stays untouched.
Keyboard shortcut
Save As is Ctrl+Shift+S and Email is Ctrl+Shift+X by default; both can be reassigned in the Ampler Settings → Shortcuts.
Why use it
Sending only part of a deck normally means duplicating the file, deleting the slides you don’t want, and exporting — every time. Ampler exports the selected slides directly, in the format you need, and can email them without leaving PowerPoint.
How consultants use it
Client communication is selective: you send the two slides that answer the question, not the eighty-slide working deck, and usually as a PDF so the layout is fixed. Ampler makes that routine. Three habits apply:
- Send only what’s relevant: a chosen subset of slides goes out, not the whole working file.
- PDF to fix the final look: a read-only PDF stops the recipient’s PowerPoint from reflowing the deck.
- Fast, in-place distribution: save or email the selection without splitting the file by hand.
Save or email selected slides makes controlled sharing a two-click job.
Tips & best practices
- Select slides before exporting to send just those; select none for the whole deck.
- Use PDF for external recipients so the layout can’t shift.
- Clean the file with Clean before sending sensitive decks externally.
