POTX stands for PowerPoint Open XML Template. It is a file format used by Microsoft PowerPoint to create presentation templates that include default layout, text, styles, and formatting. These templates can be used to create multiple PPTX files with the same design and formatting.
The POTX file format is based on Office OpenXML specifications and uses a combination of XML and ZIP to structure and compress its data. This format was introduced with Microsoft Office 2007 and replaced the older POT file format used by previous versions of PowerPoint.
POTX files can be opened and edited with Microsoft PowerPoint, as well as other presentation software such as Planamesa NeoOffice for macOS, OpenOffice Impress, and SoftMaker FreeOffice. If you're using a version of PowerPoint older than 2007, you can still open this file format but you need to have the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack installed.
You can also convert a POTX file to other formats such as PPTX, PPT, OPT, PDF, ODP, SXI, or SDA using a free file converter like Vertopal or by opening it in one of the above programs and saving it to a new format.
