POT (PowerPoint Template) stores slide masters, layouts, and formatting blueprints in the legacy binary OLE2 format from PowerPoint 97-2003. PDF (Portable Document Format) is the universal document standard for sharing fixed-layout content that renders identically on every device and operating system.

Sharing POT templates with clients, stakeholders, or team members who lack PowerPoint is impractical — POT files are useless without presentation software. Converting to PDF creates a universally viewable document showing the template's slide designs, making it easy to review and approve template layouts before deployment.

PDF also serves as a permanent visual record of template designs. As PowerPoint versions evolve and rendering changes, the PDF preserves the exact visual output at the time of conversion. This is valuable for brand consistency documentation and design system archives.

LibreOffice opens the POT binary template, renders each slide master and layout as a fixed page, and exports to PDF using its built-in PDF export engine. The output preserves vector paths, embedded images, text with font embedding, and color-accurate backgrounds. PDF/A options are available for archival-grade output. Page dimensions match the template's slide size (typically 10" x 7.5" for standard 4:3 or 13.33" x 7.5" for 16:9 widescreen).

The PDF includes all slide masters and layouts defined in the template, each on its own page.

No. The PDF is a fixed visual snapshot. To edit the template, work with the POT file in PowerPoint or convert to ODP for LibreOffice.

Yes. LibreOffice embeds fonts during PDF export, ensuring the template text displays correctly on any system regardless of installed fonts.

The page size matches the template's slide dimensions — typically 10x7.5 inches (4:3) or 13.33x7.5 inches (16:9).

Yes. LibreOffice supports PDF/A-1b and PDF/A-2b output for long-term archival compliance.
