Export Troubleshooting

​

Download fails or page crashes on export

Large or complex exports can strain your browser’s GPU and memory:

• Reduce the export scale: Try exporting at 1x instead of 2x or 3x
• Export fewer pages: Export individual pages instead of the full deck
• Refresh and retry: Free up browser memory by refreshing the page first
• Try a different browser: Chrome and Edge tend to handle large exports best

Layovelle automatically uses tiled rendering for very large exports (over 8,192px in any dimension or over 50 million total pixels) to work within GPU limits. If rendering still fails at high scale, it retries at 1x scale automatically.

​

Video export is truncated or incomplete

• Video export encodes on the server for large clips, which can take longer than expected
• Make sure you don’t close the browser tab while export is in progress
• GIF exports run at 10–24 FPS and MP4 at 24/30/60 FPS (defaults 12 and 30). The frame budget is rate-independent and per format (MP4 18,000 frames / 600 s, GIF 9,000 / 300 s), so a higher frame rate shortens the longest exportable clip (300 s of MP4 at 60 FPS vs 600 s at 30)
• If the export fails, try exporting a shorter animation or fewer pages

PowerPoint export looks different from the web version

This is expected to some degree. PowerPoint export is a best-effort conversion:

• Complex vector elements are rasterized (converted to images) because PowerPoint doesn’t support all the same shape types
• Backgrounds are placed as slide masters, which are non-editable in PowerPoint
• Fonts may render differently if the recipient doesn’t have the same fonts installed
• Blending modes and advanced effects may not have PowerPoint equivalents
• Animations from Layovelle do not transfer to PowerPoint

For the most faithful reproduction, use PDF export instead.

​

Google Slides export looks different from the web version

Google Slides export is also a best-effort conversion:

• Complex vector elements and SVG-backed assets may be rasterized because Slides does not accept raw SVG images
• Semi-transparent text may appear more opaque because editable Slides text does not preserve Layovelle text alpha exactly
• Advanced image treatments such as masked pattern fills or partial-opacity images may be flattened into PNGs
• Fonts may render differently if Google Slides substitutes a different font
• Animations do not transfer to Google Slides

If exact visual fidelity matters more than editability, use PDF export instead.

​

Animations behavior in exported files

• PDF: Animations are not included; the design is exported as static pages
• PowerPoint: Animations are not included
• PNG/JPG: Static snapshot of the current frame
• MP4/GIF: Animations are rendered as video. Single-page export captures that page’s animation; full video export includes transitions between pages
• Google Slides: Animations are not included

Animations do not convert to PowerPoint or Google Slides animations, and there’s no setting that will change that — the two animation models are too different to translate faithfully. If you need motion in a deck, export the animation as MP4 and insert that video into the slide yourself. See Animation and video.
