## Edit PPTM using Aspose.Slides

[**Aspose.Slides for PHP via Java**](/slides/php-java/) can load, modify, and save macro-enabled PPTM presentations. You can edit slide text, add shapes and images, update formatting, and work with other presentation elements through the API.

The following example loads a PPTM presentation, adds a rectangle containing text to its first slide, and saves the modified presentation as a new PPTM file. Existing VBA macros are retained when the presentation is saved with `SaveFormat::Pptm`.
