- 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.
- This format is used to compress TIFF images when sending them via fax machines. This format helps reduce the data transmission time. Group 3 eliminates redundant data during compression in order to reduce file size. The standard 10:1 compression ratio may be increased to the user's preferences, but it can lead to a significant loss of image quality.
