What is a .POTM file?
Everything worth knowing about Microsoft PowerPoint 2007/2010 macro-enabled Open XML template file files.
A POTM file is a Microsoft PowerPoint Open XML Macro-Enabled Presentation Template. It contains pre-formatted layouts and macros used to create new slideshow presentations. These data files are compatible with Microsoft PowerPoint, Microsoft Office, NeoOffice, and the PowerPoint Viewer.

Is my .POTM file uploaded anywhere?
No. Your .POTM file is read and converted for you. The first time, a small open-source conversion component is downloaded and then cached.
Why does my older .POTM file look plain?
Some older word-processor files keep their formatting in a complex binary layout. The viewer shows all the text and tables reliably; richer formatting for those files is coming with server-side conversion.
Are macros in a .POTM file safe here?
Yes. The viewer never runs macros. It only reads the document text, styles and images, and tells you when a file contains macros.
Can I edit my .POTM file?
This is a viewer. You can copy the text or save it as HTML/TXT and edit it elsewhere. An online editor is on our roadmap.
It says my .POTM file is something else. Why?
We check the file's signature, not just its name. If a file was renamed, the viewer tells you what it really is and which tool opens it.
