SurveyMethods allows you to convert reports generated with the Quick Report Generator to PowerPoint for further editing. This feature is not available on the Results Summary, Individual Results, or Custom Report Builder reports. Those reports can be converted to PDF (all reports) or converted to Word (all except for Individual Results)

To use this feature, first log in to your SurveyMethods account and then navigate to the Analyze menu of the survey you wish to analyze using the icon () from the My Surveys page.

Once you have finished customizing your Quick Report, you can convert it to PowerPoint either from the reporting menu or from within the report.

Converting to PowerPoint from the Reporting Menu

You can quickly export any report from the Quick Report Generator directly from the reporting menu by clicking on the PowerPoint icon () on the report that you wish to export.

You will see a warning with some important notes about exporting to PowerPoint. When you click OK, the system will begin generating the report, which may take several minutes depending on the number of responses in your survey.

Once your report is ready, a link will display in red in the middle of the page.

Click the link to download the file and then you can open the file from your Downloads folder or by clicking the file on the bottom of the screen, depending on which browser you are using.

Your report will include all of the charts and data shown on the chosen report, on a generic SurveyMethods PowerPoint template:

The report includes some built-in spaces for notes, and you can further customize as needed, such as adding your logo to the master slide, or dropping the slides into a different PowerPoint template.
