PPS is a file format created by Microsoft PowerPoint. It uses the .pps file extension. When you open a PPS file, it automatically launches as a slideshow. Some alternative office programs, such as LibreOffice Impress, can also open PPS file documents and other PowerPoint file types. ### How do I edit PPS files? If you want to edit PPS file presentations, use the "Edit Presentation" function in PowerPoint after launching the file or save it as a PPT file. ### What is the translation of “PPS” in English? PPS stands for “PowerPoint Slide Show,” named this way because it is designed to launch as a slideshow immediately upon opening. ### What's the difference between a PPS file and a PPT file? The main difference between a PPS file and a PPT file is how they open.
