What is a PPTX file?
A PPTX file is a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation file format introduced in Microsoft Office 2007. It is an XML-based file format and uses the .pptx file extension. These files are used to create presentations containing images, text, charts, graphs, audio, video, and other multimedia elements.
PPTX files are typically smaller than their predecessor, the PPT file, because they use the ZIP compression algorithm. This results in faster file transfers and easier file management.
Due to its widespread use, most presentation software supports opening and editing PPTX files. Additionally, PPTX files can be converted to other formats such as PDF or video for easier sharing and distribution.
