## Convert PPSM to GIF in Python

[**Aspose.Slides for Python via Java**](/slides/python-java/) can load a macro-enabled PPSM slide show and export it as an animated GIF. The resulting file presents the slides as animation frames and can include slide transitions supported by the GIF exporter. Macros and interactive behavior are not included in the GIF, and Microsoft PowerPoint is not required.

## Convert PPSM to GIF using Python

Create a `Presentation` from the PPSM file and call `save` with `SaveFormat.Gif` to create an animated GIF.

### Python code for converting PPSM to animated GIF

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