------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Dec 19 01:19:08 -0800 2005 ------- Because you cannot arrive at a conference with a 80MB installation and insist to install this on the computer used for the presentations, only to be able to show your OOo Impress presentation. However you can do this with either a standalone .exe presentation or a small , viewer-only programm that does not need a installation procedure but only a doubleclick on the .exe file to start a presentation. And which can similarly rapidly be deleted afterwards. In the moment, at least in the life sciences area that I know well, conferences and seminars are based on Windows Powerpoint presentations, mosltly for compatibility reasons. Already Powerpoint on MacIntosh systems give problems and are thus avoided. In my opinion, as long as OOo does not have a simple-to-install standalon viewer or the possibility to create from any presentation a standalone-presentation (with the choices of including linked files, true type fonts, a viewer, etc). By the way, Powerpoint does all of this and the installation takes only about 5MB (excluding the presentation file), all DLL within the same folder, so with one click you can delete all of this again. I can only stress again that in my opinion in life sciences OOo could have alot more more success if you could produce a standalone presentation. I prefer creating my presentations using OOo, however I do it never for conferences and seminars where I cannot use my own laptop, as I do not want to be embarrased with a presentation that has format and action problems.
