About formats

DOCX is the default document format for Microsoft Word since Office 2007, based on the Office Open XML (OOXML) standard published as ECMA-376 and adopted as ISO/IEC 29500. A DOCX file is a ZIP archive containing XML documents that describe the document body (document.xml), styles, themes, headers, footers, footnotes, comments, numbering definitions, and relationships between parts. Media assets like images and embedded objects reside in dedicated directories within the package. The XML structure means document content is human-inspectable and programmable — developers can create, modify, and extract content from DOCX files using standard XML libraries in any programming language without requiring Word. One significant advantage is openness and interoperability: the published specification enables any software to implement DOCX support, and the format is read and written by LibreOffice, Google Docs, Apple Pages, and dozens of other tools across all platforms. Built-in ZIP compression is another practical strength — DOCX files are substantially smaller than equivalent DOC files, and the modular XML structure improves crash recovery since corruption in one part does not necessarily destroy the entire document. The format supports all modern Word capabilities including SmartArt, content controls, bibliography management, accessibility metadata, and real-time co-authoring. DOCX has become the universal standard for document interchange in business, education, and government.

PPTM is a macro-enabled presentation format for Microsoft PowerPoint, introduced with Office 2007 as part of the Office Open XML family. Structurally identical to PPTX — a ZIP archive containing XML parts for slides, layouts, themes, and media — PPTM adds the ability to store and execute VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) macro code within the presentation. The deliberate separation of macro-enabled (.pptm) and macro-free (.pptx) extensions was a security design decision: users and administrators can identify macro-containing files by extension alone, and security policies can block or warn about macro-enabled formats while freely allowing standard PPTX files. PPTM files store VBA projects in a dedicated binary stream (vbaProject.bin) within the ZIP package, alongside the same XML slide content used by PPTX. Macros in PowerPoint presentations power automated slide generation, custom ribbon interfaces, interactive quizzes, data-driven content updates, and integration with external data sources. One advantage is workflow automation — PPTM enables repeatable processes like generating monthly report decks from database queries or updating financial charts across dozens of slides with a single button click. The format preserves full compatibility with the OOXML specification, meaning all standard PowerPoint features — transitions, animations, embedded media, SmartArt — work identically to PPTX. PPTM is supported by Microsoft PowerPoint on Windows and macOS, with macro execution limited to the desktop application.
