- Description
- The POTX file format is a template file used by Microsoft PowerPoint, a well-known presentation software. As part of the Open XML file format family introduced in Microsoft Office 2007, POTX files are used for creating multiple presentations with a similar layout, style, and formatting, ensuring consistency across documents. These templates can include predefined slide backgrounds, fonts, color schemes, and layouts. Users can create new presentations based on these templates, which allows for efficient creation of visually cohesive and professionally styled presentations.
- A DOTX file is a template created by Microsoft Word, a word processing program. It contains default layouts and settings for a document, including styles, AutoText, toolbars, and macros. DOTX files are used as a baseline to create multiple .DOCX documents with the same formatting.
