- export the presentation in Acrobat Reader format (.PDF).
- readable with the Acrobat Reader, which comes free of charge and is available on practically all machines.
- You can simulate the equivalent of a .PPS (automatic launch) at the time of export by ticking "Open in fullscreen mode" on the "User Interface" tab of the File ▸ Export as PDF menu.
- the hyperlinks are active
- You can use the transitions provided by Impress by ticking "Use the transitions" at export (the "User Interface" tab of the menu File ▸ Export as PDF)
- Inconveniences: animations do not work. You can create some intermediate slides to "decompose" the transition effect.
- export the presentation in html format (.html)
- Readable with any browser.
- Inconvenience 1: transitions don't work. You can create some intermediate slides to "decompose" the transition effect
- Inconvenience 2: the html format will require you to create several files (in fact, one for each slide plus one for each image, which is a lot!). You will need to remember to copy all these html files and the image (.JPG) files which you have made.
- export the presentation in Flash format (.SWF).
- Readable with any browser equipped with the Flash plugin (most browsers).
- Inconvenience: transitions don't work. You can create some intermediate slides to "decompose" the transition effect
- save the Impress presentation as a .PPT (PowerPoint) file, then use the PowerPoint viewer
- Readable with any computer that has the PowerPoint viewer.
- Advantage: this viewer is available gratis from Microsoft and has has a smaller footprint than the full LibreOffice suite (25.8 MB). It can therefore be attached to the presentation on a USB stick or a CD-ROM.
