Microsoft PowerPoint Macro-Enabled Presentation (.pptm)

PPTM stands for PowerPoint Open XML Macro-Enabled Presentation. It is a file format used by Microsoft PowerPoint to create presentations that contain Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) code. A PPTM file is comprised of pages called slides that hold text, media files like images and videos, graphs, and other things pertinent to a presentation.

Like PowerPoint's PPTX format, PPTM files use ZIP and XML to compress and organize the data into a single file. The difference between the two is that PPTM files can execute macros, while PPTX files, although they might contain them, cannot.

You can open and edit PPTM files with Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 or newer. If you have an older version of PowerPoint, you can still open the file if you have the free Microsoft Compatibility Pack installed. You can also view and edit PPTM files with other presentation software such as WPS Office Presentation. You can also convert a PPTM file to other formats such as PPTX, MP4, PDF, etc.
