Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 17389
Powerpoint Export requires Template
Last modified: 2003-09-12 15:58:18 UTC
When I export an Impress file to Powerpoint I get the message "Powerpoint can't open the type of file represented by..." when opening in Powerpoint 2000. When I export then a Powerpoint template it opens fine, and once it has opened the presentation it is not required anymore. But I am not sucessful in exporting my presentations without this extra step. This bug is true for earlier versions as well.
Reassign to cgu.
set to new
PPT can't open files which are already open in another application. You should be able to open the file in PPT when you close it before in Impress.
I close the issue as works for me. Please reopen the issue if you still can reproduce the bug.
