This option is meant to convert an Writer "outline" to a set of Impress (i.e. OpenOffice's PowerPoint equivalent) slides. I have tried this, with the new exporter, but the conversion from Writer to Impress only transfers the headings and not the bullet lists in each slide. The Writer file does have all the content from the org file as headings and bullet points. Has anybody tried this and managed to get it to work? I know very little about OpenOffice, and much less of Microsoft's tools... Thanks, eric Footnotes: [1] http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/41924 -- : Eric S Fraga, GnuPG: 0xC89193D8FFFCF67D : in Emacs 24.3.50.1 and Org 7.9.3e-897-g787a07
