Artstor: Download to PowerPoint

Download to PowerPoint

Downloading a group of images directly into PowerPoint is easy:

  1. To download anything from Artstor you must first log in to your registered account. 

  2. Begin by creating an image group: 

  • Search for the images you need

  • Open the detail page for an image. Click the [+] button on the right to save the image to a group. Enter a name for your image group (“AH101 Final Presentation”), create one or more tags (for example “Presentations” or “AH101”), select your sharing permissions (private or everyone at your institution--you likely want to select private) and click save.

  • Search for additional images you’d like to include, and add them to the same image group.

  • You can also add your own images to the group using the "Personal Collection" feature.

  • Use the “reorder” button to drag and drop the images into the order needed for your presentation.

3. Download your group:

  • Open your group by going to the home page and opening “groups” under the browse menu, then selecting your group. Depending on the privacy settings you selected it will be saved under either the “private” or “institutional” heading.

  • Click “download” just above the image thumbnails on the left. You can download as a PowerPoint presentation or a .zip file.

PowerPoints created in Artstor include one image per slide with the image data in the notes field. Clicking on an image when the PowerPoint is in presentation mode will open the image's detail page at library.artstor.org, allowing you to zoom and show details of the image.

You can share a link to the images in your presentation by opening the presentation, and going to Share > Generate image group link.

Artstor generates citation information automatically from metadata assigned to each image. Once the PowerPoint presentation has been generated and downloaded, you can view the citation within each image's slide.
