It is also rather an impossibility. You must download the entire
suite as it is bundled in a single package. You can however, install
only Impress, but I would advice against it.
The applications in OpenOffice.org (OOo) are integrated very
well, and several parts are needed for any one of the applications to
work properly. For example, Impress requires Writer for the text in
the slides, Draw for any of the graphics, and Calc for any
calculations or charts. And these are only the obvious requirements.
Besides, all applications depend upon the core component which
consists of more than 80% of the total space required. This is most
likely more than 90% of the total.
