## Convert PPSM to EMF in Python

[*Aspose.Slides for Python via .NET*](/slides/python-net/) lets you convert PPSM slide shows to EMF images programmatically. Load the slide show and export each slide by using `Slide.write_as_emf`.

EMF is a vector image format, so slide graphics remain scalable in compatible applications. You can use the Python API to process slide shows without Microsoft PowerPoint.

Install the library from [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/aspose-slides/) by using the following command:

### Console/Terminal

```console
pip install aspose-slides
```

## How to Convert PPSM to EMF in Python

These are the steps to convert a PPSM file to EMF using Python.

Load the PPSM file into a `Presentation` instance.

Iterate through `Presentation.slides` and open a binary output stream for each slide.

Call `Slide.write_as_emf` to write each slide to its EMF file.

## System Requirements

Before running the Python conversion sample, make sure your environment meets these requirements.

- Microsoft Windows, macOS, or 64-bit Linux (see the [system requirements](https://docs.aspose.com/slides/python-net/system-requirements/)).
- Python 3.6 or later for this sample.
- Aspose.Slides for Python via .NET installed in your environment.

### This sample code shows how to convert PPSM to EMF in Python

```python
with slides.Presentation("presentation.ppsm") as presentation:
    for slide in presentation.slides:
        file_path = f"presentation_slide_{slide.slide_number}.emf"
        with open(file_path, "wb") as output_stream:
            slide.write_as_emf(output_stream)
```

## Save PPSM as EMF in Python

Use the code sample above to export every slide in a PPSM slide show as a separate EMF file.
