A previous hint described how to extract images from Keynote by opening the file package. The latest iWork versions use compressed packages which add another step to that process.
A simpler alternative is using the inspector palette within the program.
To extract the original image from an iWork application:
- Select the image you want.
- Open the inspector palette and select the Metrics tab. (The one with the ruler.)
- The first item 'File info' shows a file icon and name.
- Drag that icon to Finder and you have your original image.
