Hi Jethro,

Syncfusion doesn’t have a native Viewer control for view or edit the PowerPoint Presentation file (PPTX format document). But we have PowerPoint Viewer to view the PowerPoint presentation through PdfViewer by converting it as PDF using Syncfusion Presentation library.

Syncfusion Presentation library used to create, read, write Microsoft PowerPoint files and convert PowerPoint presentation to PDF/image by using C#, VB.NET, and managed C++ code.

If you have PPTX format files and to view the presentation, as a workaround solution, we suggest you to use our PowerPoint Viewer by convert the PPTX format document to PDF using Essential Presentation library and then you can use the PDF Viewer component to view the converted PPTX document.

Online sample of PowerPoint Viewer in ASP.NET Core,

Blog to know more about the PowerPoint Viewer,

Refer the below UG link to know more about PPTX to PDF conversion using Presentation library,

Refer the below links to know about PDF Viewer component,

Note: You can only view the PowerPoint and not able to edit the PowerPoint in this workaround solution. You can navigate to pages and also find text in PDF viewer
