I have tried every way I can think of to contact you about a question I have
regarding Impress. I refuse to pay $58 to a tech person, only to find out that
your program doesn't have the following function. How do I download an internet
powerpoint to Open Office Impress for use in my teaching. I have searched
everywhere, including your user manual, for the answer to this question and
have have come up empty. Certainly, others have wanted to use powerpoints on
various websites for their presentations. Many powerpoints come in Microsoft
format and are downloaded to Microsoft Powerpoint, but Open Office is supposed
to be compatible with Microsoft Office. If you can't give me an email reply,
please direct me to someone for help, other than a paid techie. Thanks. YOGI
Maybe I am missing something in what you wrote. You
download the powerpoint file to your hard drive using your
Internet browser (probably IE if you are using Windows).
Then open the file using Impress. Since the file will open
in edit mode, you will then need to use the F5 key to run
the slideshow.
Another thought: Your browser may give you a choice:
open the file with a program or save it to your computer. If
so, you could select Impress as the program to use to open
the file. But again, you use the F5 key to run the slideshow.
