How do I put a Mermaid diagram into PowerPoint?
About 2 min · Updated 2026-09-13
Download → PowerPoint. The .pptx has the diagram filling a slide at high resolution, with the original Mermaid code on a final slide. Generated in your browser, nothing uploaded.
Short answer
Paste your code into the editor, open the ▾ next to "Download PNG" and pick PowerPoint. The .pptx opens in PowerPoint, Keynote and Google Slides: slide one is the diagram laid out to the slide, the last slide carries the original Mermaid code so the next revision starts from text.
Two things worth doing first
- Switch the theme. The default light theme washes out on a projector. The themes in the strip above the preview hold up better in a room, and the exported background follows whatever you're looking at.
- Turn the flow sideways. Flowcharts default to top-down, which leaves a tall narrow diagram on a wide slide. Use "Layout" above the preview to switch direction to left-to-right and it fills the slide.

Several diagrams at once
"Batch / bundle export" in the download menu renders several diagrams in several formats and packs them into one zip. That one is part of Lite.
