[Product Page](https://products.aspose.com/slides/python-net/) | [Docs](https://docs.aspose.com/slides/python-net/) | [Demos](https://products.aspose.app/slides/family) | [API Reference](https://reference.aspose.com/slides/python-net/) | [Blog](https://blog.aspose.com/category/slides/) | [Search](https://search.aspose.com/) | [Free Support](https://forum.aspose.com/c/slides) | [Release Notes](https://releases.aspose.com/slides/python-net/release-notes/2025/aspose-slides-for-python-net-25-12-release-notes/) | [Temporary License](https://purchase.aspose.com/temporary-license)

[Aspose.Slides for Python via .NET](https://products.aspose.com/slides/python-net/) is a powerful on-premise class library used for processing and working with presentations. With this API, developers and applications get to generate, modify, convert, render, print, and manipulate presentations without relying on Microsoft PowerPoint or other third-party applications and services. 

Without having to install a PowerPoint program or any 3rd party component, you can use Aspose.Slides to build different types applications. For example, Aspose, using its own APIs, developed a [free web application](https://products.aspose.app/slides/import/pdf-to-powerpoint) that allows people to convert their PDF documents to PowerPoint Presentation online.

>Aspose.Slides for Python requires you to use python programming language. For C++, Java and .NET languages, we recommend you get [Aspose.Slides for C++](https://products.aspose.com/slides/cpp/), [Aspose.Slides for Java](https://products.aspose.com/slides/java/) and [Aspose.Slides for .NET](https://products.aspose.com/slides/net/), respectively.

- Linux: `sudo apt-get install libgdiplus`

For complete setup instructions, see installation guide (https://docs.aspose.com/slides/python-net/installation/)

## Create a Presentation (PPTX file) from scratch in Python

```py
import aspose.slides as slides

# Instantiate a Presentation object that represents a presentation file
with slides.Presentation() as presentation:
    slide = presentation.slides[0]
    slide.shapes.add_auto_shape(slides.ShapeType.LINE, 50, 150, 300, 0)
    presentation.save("NewPresentation_out.pptx", slides.export.SaveFormat.PPTX)

```

## Convert a Presentation to PDF

```py
import aspose.slides as slides

# Instantiate a Presentation object that represents a PPT file
presentation = slides.Presentation("PowerPoint.ppt")

# Save the presentation as PDF
presentation.save("PPT-to-PDF.pdf", slides.export.SaveFormat.PDF)
```

## Import PDF and Save it as a Presentation

```py
import aspose.slides as slides

with slides.Presentation() as pres:
    pres.slides.remove_at(0)
    pres.slides.add_from_pdf("welcome-to-powerpoint.pdf")
    pres.save("OutputPresentation.pptx", slides.export.SaveFormat.PPTX)
```
