Submit the problem files to the OOo.org team so that they can fix it
in the next release. =)

I publish all of my presentations in PDF, and keep a copy of Adobe
Acrobat Reader on my USB disk. People actually get slightly impressed
by the PDF thing...

I've started to use S5 for my presentations, though. It's pretty
nifty. Web-based, too.

Incidentally, people doing fancy things in the latest versions of
Microsoft Office tend to also force other people to buy the latest
version of Microsoft Office. How nice is that? <wry grin>
