How to grab the PDF of the Google Slide
The next step in our little mystery is we need to add some code to our bookmarks. So the easiest way to do this is to go to Google and add it to your bookmarks.
- Add Google to Bookmarks and rename to Slides
- Next we need to head to the properties of the Slides bookmark as we need to make some changes.
- In the location area, instead of it pointing to a domain https://www.google.com we need to replace that website with the string added below:
javascript: var atag = “punch-viewer-content”, btag = “goog-flat-menu-button-caption”, ctag = “aria-setsize”, dtag = “aria-posinset”, msvg = document.getElementsByTagName(“svg”), node = document.getElementsByClassName(btag)[0], view = document.getElementsByClassName(atag)[0], size = node.getAttribute(ctag);for(var i = 0, data = “”; i!=size; view.click()) i = node.getAttribute(dtag), data += msvg[0].outerHTML;document.write(data);
- Once you’ve added the code to the bookmark, its back to the Google Slide
- Load the Google Slide
- Next we need to press the Bookmark button we just created
- This will cause the Google Slide to appear as one large document rather than a per slide
- Now go to File >> Print and Choose Microsoft Print to PDF and press ok
- The document will prepare to print then ask you to save as
- Enter document name and press ok
- Done!!!
