## Convert FODP to PPSM in Python

[**Aspose.Slides for Python via Java**](/slides/python-java/) can load an FODP presentation and save it in the macro-enabled PowerPoint PPSM slide show format. PPSM supports VBA projects, but converting an FODP file does not add macros to the presentation. The conversion does not require Microsoft PowerPoint, LibreOffice, or OpenOffice.

## Convert FODP to PPSM using Python

Create a `Presentation` from the FODP file and call `save` with `SaveFormat.Ppsm` to create the PPSM slide show.

### Python code for converting FODP to PPSM

```python
presentation = Presentation("presentation.fodp")
try:
    presentation.save("presentation.ppsm", SaveFormat.Ppsm)
finally:
    presentation.dispose()
```
