Convert PPTX to SVG in Python

Python API for rendering PPTX presentation slides as SVG images

Convert PPTX to SVG in Python

Aspose.Slides for Python via .NET lets you render PPTX presentation slides as SVG images programmatically. Load the source file into a Presentation instance and call Slide.write_as_svg for each slide.

SVG is a vector image format, so each slide is exported to a separate scalable image file. 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

This sample code shows how to convert PPTX slides to SVG in Python

with slides.Presentation("presentation.pptx") as presentation:
    for slide in presentation.slides:
        file_path = "presentation_slide_{}.svg".format(slide.slide_number)
        with open(file_path, "wb") as output_stream:
            slide.write_as_svg(output_stream)

How to Convert PPTX to SVG in Python

These are the steps to convert a PPTX file to SVG using Python.

  1. Load the PPTX file into a Presentation instance.
  2. Access each slide through a Slide variable and call Slide.write_as_svg with an output stream.
  3. Each slide is written to a separate SVG file.
