Convert PPSM to PPSX in Python

Aspose.Slides for Python via Java can load a macro-enabled PowerPoint slide show (.ppsm) and save it in the macro-free Open XML PPSX format without Microsoft PowerPoint. The output remains a slide show file, but PPSX cannot store VBA projects, so macros from the source file are not included.

The conversion retains presentation content such as slides, layouts, themes, and supported multimedia. Load the source file with Presentation, then call save with SaveFormat.Ppsx.
