Create a Presentation from the PPSX file, access each slide through a variable, and call writeAsSvgToBytes to create the SVG data.

Python code for converting PPSX slides to SVG

presentation = Presentation("presentation.ppsx")
try:
    slide_count = presentation.getSlides().size()

    for slide_index in range(slide_count):
        slide = presentation.getSlides().get_Item(slide_index)
        file_path = f"slide-{slide_index + 1}.svg"
        svg_data = bytes(slide.writeAsSvgToBytes())

        with open(file_path, "wb") as output_file:
            output_file.write(svg_data)
finally:
    presentation.dispose()
