Hi

How is is possible to do a pdf of Impress handouts? 
Using OOv2.0.2 in Linux - Ubuntu Dapper(1)

Despite the instructions here:
http://user-faq.openoffice.org/new-faq/Impress/Exporting/79.html
1) there is no View > Master > "Master Handout", though thankfully "Slides 
Master" and "Notes Master" does.
2) No such command "spadmin" that could run in the CLI.

For me, this upgrade results in reduced functionality from OOv1.15 which could 
easily do this

A workaround is to print to a postscript file then from a terminal, manually 
convert it to a pdf.

Select from menu File > Print
from here: click "print to file" 
then click on "Options"; from contents select only "handouts" 
then "OK" to go to print dialog to print a postscript file.
Open a terminal and go to where the new ps file is.
to get pdf: run ps2pdf on file "ps2pdf impressfile.ps impressfile.pdf"
