PPT
Microsoft slideshow acronym
PPT is the standard file extension for Microsoft PowerPoint presentations, now often used as shorthand for the presentation itself: Can you send me the PPT before the meeting?
The format has become so dominant that PPT sometimes refers to any slideshow presentation regardless of software.
In scientific contexts, ppt means parts per trillion, a unit measuring extremely small concentrations.
