## Convert PPSX to PDF in Python

[Aspose.Slides for Python via Java](/slides/python-java/) can convert a PowerPoint Slide Show (`.ppsx`) to a PDF document without Microsoft PowerPoint. PDF output is convenient for sharing, printing, and archiving because each slide is rendered as a fixed-layout page.

For a straightforward conversion, load the PPSX file with `Presentation` and call `save` with `SaveFormat.Pdf`. Animations, transitions, and other interactive slide show behavior do not remain interactive in the PDF.

## How to Convert PPSX to PDF in Python

Load the source PPSX file into a `Presentation`, then save it with `SaveFormat.Pdf`.

### Python code for converting PPSX to PDF

```python
presentation = Presentation("presentation.ppsx")
try:
    presentation.save("presentation.pdf", SaveFormat.Pdf)
finally:
    presentation.dispose()
```

## Steps to Convert PPSX to PDF in Python

The conversion loads the PowerPoint slide show and renders its slides as pages in a PDF document.

Install [Aspose.Slides for Python via Java](/slides/python-java/).

Configure JPype and make the Aspose.Slides package available to your Python project.

Create a `Presentation` from the source `.ppsx` file.

Call `save` with `SaveFormat.Pdf` and a `.pdf` output path.
