Convert PPTX to PPSM in Python

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

PPSM is PowerPoint’s macro-enabled Open XML slide show format. Because a PPTX source cannot contain VBA macros, the conversion changes the file format but does not create a macro project. 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
