## Convert PPT to GIF in Python

[**Aspose.Slides for Python via Java**](/slides/python-java/) can load a legacy PowerPoint presentation (`.ppt`) and export it as an animated GIF. The output file presents the slides as animation frames and can reproduce supported slide transitions. Microsoft PowerPoint is not required.

## Convert PPT to GIF using Python

Create a `Presentation` from the source PPT file, then call `save` with `SaveFormat.Gif` to generate an animated GIF.

### Python code for converting PPT to animated GIF

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