## Convert PPTM to GIF in Python

[**Aspose.Slides for Python via Java**](/slides/python-java/) can load a macro-enabled PowerPoint presentation (`.pptm`) and export it as an animated GIF. The output file presents the slides as animation frames and can reproduce supported slide transitions. The exported GIF does not contain the PPTM file's VBA project, and Microsoft PowerPoint is not required.

## Convert PPTM to GIF using Python

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

### Python code for converting PPTM to animated GIF

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

## How to convert PPTM to animated GIF in Python

Configure the package and start the Java Virtual Machine in your application.

Open the source PPTM file with `Presentation`.

Call `save` with `SaveFormat.Gif` and a `.gif` output path.
