In PowerPoint, in addition to the traditional .ppt format, you could
select a couple other options for saving presentations. One of these
included saving a "viewer" with the file, so you did not have to have
PowerPoint to view the presentation iirc.
There was also an option to save the file as a PowerPoint slideshow
(.pps extension I believe). If you did that and opened the file on a
computer with PowerPoint installed, it would launch the file directly
into the "slideshow " mode instead of "design" mode. Some consider this
to be a much more professional and cleaner way to do the presentation -
your audience is not interested in seeing the design interface of
PowerPoint (or in our case, Impress).

The intended use is that the user wants to e-mail the presentation to
someone, and when that person opens it, would like for it to be in a
nice "clean" view rather than the working view.
Not certain what you really mean but there is a nice program that will
wrap a presentation for display with no OOo needed. Please see
