Merge POTM Files in Python

Combine macro-enabled PowerPoint template files with a cross-platform Python API

Merge POTM in Python

Aspose.Slides for Python via .NET lets you merge Microsoft PowerPoint Macro-Enabled Template (POTM) files by cloning slides from a source Presentation into a destination Presentation. Append each source slide with SlideCollection.add_clone, then call Presentation.save with SaveFormat.POTM to write the combined template.

Merge POTM Files Using Python

Open the destination and source POTM files, append a clone of each source slide, and save the merged presentation as a POTM file.

Python code for merging multiple POTM files into one filewith slides.Presentation("destination.potm") as destination_presentation:
    with slides.Presentation("source.potm") as source_presentation:
        for slide in source_presentation.slides:
            destination_presentation.slides.add_clone(slide)

    destination_presentation.save("merged_template.potm", slides.export.SaveFormat.POTM)
