Original PPS slideshow
The first attached file is a PPS, which is the first attachment of this KDE bug
report:

- Open attached PPS file,
- Since it's a PPS, it's going to start a slideshow, switch to edit mode by
right-clicking it and choosing Edit Presentation,
- Save as PPTX,
- Close LO, and try opening PPTX in PowerPoint.
=> PowerPoint fails to open the file, and attempts to repair it.
The same happens if you convert PPS to PPT in PowerPoint first (second
attachment), and attempt to convert that to PPTX in Impress.
Oberved using LO 25.8.0.0.alpha0+ (60b64338c2a1236cdc98f3834cc77fc3006fc241) /
Windows.
To rule out bug 165036's involvement, also checked and observed in preceding
25.2.0.1.0+ (eb83239ef26a8ddf77d82d1f6805c58ee366c172), and a few older
versions: 6.0.0.3, 4.4.0.3, 3.3.0.
Interestingly, when converting using --convert-to, the result does open in
PowerPoint. It's not perfect, but that's for a different bug report.
