I've been using OpenOffice for quite a long time. These days, I have
to send my presentations to Microsoft Office users (I can't tell

afford the presentation to be corrupted because of the export.
Is there any solution to this problem?
I need them only to view the presentation, not to edit it. Is there
a light weight viewer, that can be installed on their machine (with
permission of course) when they open my presentation?
Are you using Windows? Or do you have access to a Windows
system? If so, one workaround is to turn your problem on its
head. If you install Microsoft's freeware Powerpoint Viewer -
available only for Windows, it seems - on your system, you would be
able to run your presentation that you have saved in .ppt (or .pps)
format in that, and see how it will appear in your correspondents'
copies of Powerpoint. Then you have the chance to tinker with your
presentation in OpenOffice Impress until the result as viewed in
Powerpoint is acceptable.
I trust this helps.
