Convert PPS to PPTM

The PPS file extension, short for PowerPoint Slide Show, is a legacy format used by Microsoft PowerPoint versions prior to 2007. It represents a completed slide show that opens directly in presentation mode, unlike the PPT format which opens in edit mode. PPS files are used for distributing and presenting finalized presentations. While newer versions of PowerPoint use the PPSX extension for similar purposes, PPS files are still supported by various presentation software and can be opened with Microsoft PowerPoint, OpenOffice Impress, and Google Slides.

PPTM stands for PowerPoint Macro-Enabled Presentation, a file extension used by Microsoft PowerPoint for presentations that include macros. These files enhance functionality by allowing automation of repetitive tasks through embedded scripts written in VBA (Visual Basic for Applications). Introduced with Microsoft Office 2007, the PPTM format evolved from the PPTX format, incorporating macro capabilities while maintaining the XML-based structure. Its primary use is in environments requiring advanced automation and customization features, making it indispensable for professionals seeking efficient workflow management in presentations.
