## Convert POTM to PPS in Python

[**Aspose.Slides for Python via Java**](/slides/python-java/) can load a macro-enabled POTM file and save it as a PPS slide show. PPS is the legacy binary PowerPoint Show format and opens directly in Slide Show view. To preserve VBA macros, save the file as PPSM instead. Microsoft PowerPoint is not required.

## Convert POTM to PPS using Python

Create a `Presentation` from the POTM file, then call `save` with `SaveFormat.Pps`.

### Python code for converting POTM to PPS

```python
presentation = Presentation("presentation.potm")
try:
    presentation.save("presentation.pps", SaveFormat.Pps)
finally:
    presentation.dispose()
```
