What is Z file format?

The Z file format is a popular archive file format used to compress and store multiple files and directories into a single file. It was originally developed for the Unix operating system, but is now also supported by many other platforms, including Windows, macOS, and Linux. Z files usually use the .z or .zip file extension, and are created using the open source compression tool gzip. The Z file format is an effective way of reducing file size and storage space. It also allows users to keep multiple files and folders together in a single file. This makes it easier to transport and share data, as the entire set of files can be easily emailed or moved to another machine. Unlike other archive file formats, Z files are not self-extracting, meaning they must be manually extracted by the user. To open and extract the contents of a Z file, users must either rely on third-party software, or use the command-line interface. Overall, the Z file format is a useful way of compressing and archiving multiple files and folders into a single, smaller file. It is widely supported by many platforms, but requires users to manually extract the contents.

What is POTM file format?

A POTM file refers to a macro-enabled presentation template created using Microsoft PowerPoint, a software program used for creating slide show presentations. It includes default images, slide templates, macros, and formatting. POTM files are commonly used by PowerPoint users to create multiple .PPTM files with consistent designs and macro settings.

POTM files offer additional functionality compared to typical presentation files, as they support macros. Macros are script-like functions that automate repetitive tasks within PowerPoint. Users can record macros that can be replayed to perform specific actions and assign them to buttons or keystrokes for convenient execution. To record a macro, users can select View → Macros in PowerPoint.

For general presentation creation, users can save their files as .PPTX or .POTX files. However, if they want to create a template that incorporates macros, they can save their presentation as a POTM file.

It’s worth noting that POTM files were introduced by Microsoft when they released Microsoft Office 2007.

To open a POTM file, Microsoft PowerPoint (2007 or later) is the recommended application for full support of presentation formatting and embedded macros on both Windows and macOS. Alternative applications like Apache OpenOffice Impress, Kingsoft Presentation, and Apple Keynote can also open POTM files, but some formatting and macros may not be fully preserved. For Mac users looking to view a POTM file without editing, Apple Preview (bundled with macOS) or Google Drive, a free cloud storage service, can be used.

Online platforms like Google Slides allow users to upload POTM files for viewing, editing, and conversion. However, it’s important to note that Google Slides does not support macros.

To convert a POTM file, various presentation applications including Microsoft PowerPoint, Apple Keynote, and OpenOffice Impress offer conversion capabilities. In Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows and Mac, users can select File → Save As and choose from formats such as .PPTX, .PPT, .PDF, .ODP, .XPS, .MP4, .WMV, .JPEG, and .PNG to convert the POTM file to their desired format.
