Convert PPTM to PPSX in Python

Python API for converting PPTM presentations to PPSX slide shows

Convert PPTM to PPSX in Python

Aspose.Slides for Python via .NET lets you convert PPTM presentations to PPSX slide shows programmatically. Load the source file into a Presentation instance and save it by using Presentation.save with SaveFormat.PPSX.

PPSX is the macro-free PowerPoint Open XML Slide Show format. Because PPSX files cannot store VBA macros, use PPSM when macros from the source PPTM file must be retained. You can test the conversion in your browser or use the Python API in your application.

Install the library from PyPI by using the following command:

Console/Terminal

pip install aspose-slides
