About XLS and PPTX

XLS (Microsoft Excel 97-2003 Workbook) is Excel's legacy binary format, still common on older systems though superseded by XLSX.

PPTX (Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation (Office Open XML)) is PowerPoint's modern XML-based format, supporting animations, transitions, and embedded media.

What to expect: XLS and PPTX support similar formatting, so most content and structure should carry over cleanly.
