Convert PPTM to PDF in Python

Aspose.Slides for Python via Java can convert a macro-enabled PowerPoint presentation (.pptm) to a PDF document without Microsoft PowerPoint. PDF output preserves the rendered appearance of supported slide content for consistent sharing, printing, and archiving. Because PDF is a fixed-layout document format, the output does not contain the source presentation’s VBA project or interactive slide behavior.

For a standard conversion, load the PPTM file with Presentation and call save with SaveFormat.Pdf. You can also use PdfOptions when you need to control settings such as compliance, image quality, or hidden-slide handling.
