Mac – Extract audio files from powerpoint

macmicrosoft-powerpoint

I recorded a some audio files on my powerpoint presentation. This was done in two ways: (1) for some slides I used the record narration feature of powerpoint (the audio on each slide was recorded separately) and, (2) for others I used audacity to record the audio, which I imported into powerpoint.

I need to extract the audio file from each slide. I need to send just the audiofiles to someone. Is there a way I can extract the audiofiles?

Thanks

Save your .ppt or .pptx file as "web page" (.htm,.html) with a new name. PowerPoint will create a file with the new file name, and an .htm extension. It will also create a new folder, called yourfilename_files, containing all the embedded objects including sounds in your presentation. Open this newly created folder and you will see all the audio files listed. If your file is in .pptx format, you can also rename it as filename.pptx.zip and you can browse the sound and image files inside the zip file.

Edit: For Mac, you can use File Juicer to extract sounds from your PowerPoint file. See the relevant page for more info.
