What is a FODP file?
The FODP format represents a Flat XML OpenDocument Presentation. Unlike the standard ODP format, which utilizes a ZIP-compressed container to hold multiple XML files and assets, FODP stores the entire presentation-including content, styles, and metadata-as a single, monolithic XML document. Adhering to the OASIS OpenDocument standard (ISO/IEC 26300), this human-readable structure facilitates easier version control integration (e.g., Git) and XSLT manipulation without the need for decompression.
How to open a FODP file
FODP files are natively supported by the LibreOffice suite and Apache OpenOffice. Because it is a raw XML file, it can also be inspected using text editors like Notepad++ or VS Code, though rendering the presentation requires an OpenDocument-compliant suite. Microsoft PowerPoint generally requires conversion to ODP or PPTX before opening.

What is a POTM file?
The POTM format is a macro-enabled presentation template introduced with Microsoft Office 2007, adhering to the Office Open XML (OOXML) standard. It utilizes ZIP compression to organize XML components but, unlike standard POTX files, allows the storage of Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) code within a vbaProject.bin part. This distinction enables the automation of tasks and custom scripting within the template structure.
How to open a POTM file
Opening POTM files requires software capable of executing or suppressing VBA macros securely. Microsoft PowerPoint is the primary application for Windows and macOS. While LibreOffice Impress and WPS Office can open the slide content, macro execution may be restricted or unsupported due to differences in the scripting backend compared to the Microsoft VBA engine.
