--- Comment #2 from Andy <[email protected]> --- I am quite surprised by this. It is true that the main use for the good old html export wizard was to automatically produce a series of bitmaps of the slides, not necessarily to use the html format in itself. This said, how on earth do I now get the hundred or more bitmap files of my slides??? All other filters (It seems to me the SVG as well) export just ONE single slide at a time!! Or am I missing something??? In fact if I do a search on the web on how to export a whole bunch of slides to image files, the same advice turns out all the times: export to html and then pick the images that were produced. So it is not really a need for the html infrastructure, abd if the other export filters would allow to export mlutiple slides into moltiple bitmap files, it would probably be as good (maybe better, since some other export filters have more formatting options). However, the point is... the html export wizard was, as far as I know, the ONLY way to get image files of all slides with no effort! So what can we do now? at the moment I am using an old portable LO6 that I have on an external disk... but why wipe out a somehow useful utility that was already there, causing no harm to anyone?? who is benefitting from this? I have also read the discussion thread on Bug 105303 - Drop html export wizard, and I must say I found the reasons for this quite vague and thin... with some comment disagreeing as well. Especially as there is no alternative! Anyway, if I am stupid enough not to realise there is another way to produce bitmap file of your slides automatically, I an ready to take the blame. But otherwise, having to export some 150 slides of a presentation one at a time is really no serious option. And, I know the pdf export is there and it is multipage, but you'll agree that a single pdf file is not always the reasonable solution. That's it, thank you for listening, -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
