This is a help list for Apache OpenOffice. LibreOffice is a clone of OpenOffice and has their
own help mailing list. For problems with LibreOffice you should ask them.
Or switch to the real thing, instead of a clone.

Jeff,
I did the same test again only now I used .pptx file format. And I see the
problem.
It mixes the LibO notes over top of the Powerpoint notes.
We need to add a bug report for this. As a workaround, if she saves her
powerpoint file
as a ppx (powerpoint 97-2004 presentation) then it will transfer back and forth
correctly in LibO. I
know this is not ideal.

Hello Clarence,
My wife uses LibO 4.0 and PowerPoint 2010. While in LibO, she's in
Windows 7 Home Premium and saves the file as PowerPoint 2007/2010
(.pptx). At work (where she uses PowerPoint 2010), she also does it on
Windows (either 7 or 8.1, she's not sure...it's a government office if
that helps).
Thank you very kindly!

Hi Jeff,
I just did a test with LibreOffice 4.1 (LibO) and Powerpoint for Mac 2011
version 14.3.5 both running on Mac OS X 10.8.4
I had no problem going back and forth. I created notes in one and opened
them in the other and then reversed the process. It worked flawlessly.
What version of LibO are you using? Which Operating System? Which version of
Powerpoint?
Version 4.1 has a panel above the document pane marked Normal | Outline |
Notes | etc.
Just click on Notes button to view the notes.
Are you saving the file in Powerpoint 97 file format from LibO?

Hello,
My wife is willing to consider converting to LibreOffice 4
permanently. Here's her major issue, in two parts:
(1) She does not know how to start or use Notes in LibreOffice Impress
(the presentation part).
(2) When she starts (and saves) Notes in PowerPoint, and then works on
the presentation in LibreOffice -- even if she does not touch the
Notes while in LibreOffice -- when she re-opens the presentation in
PowerPoint the Notes are all fouled up every which way.
What does she need to do?
Thank you very much!
