|
Hi to all!
I am wondering if NeoOffice has the ability to open Powerpoint 2007 files (file extension .pptx)?
Someone I am working with has Vista. I am virtually the only one in our workgroup who could open her Word 2007 files, thanks to NeoOffice.
The Powerpoint files, however, are a problem. I did try to open them in NeoOffice, just in case it might work, and got a file compatibility box. Wasn't sure what to select, so just tried one of the presentation options, and after that got a message that the file was corrupted. So I wrote to my co-worker and asked her to send the file to me saved as .ppt.
I am guessing that it is not possible to open .pptx files in NeoOffice at this time, but thought I'd ask, anyway. |

The odf-converter project that created the Word 2007 converter recently released beta versions that have experimental Excel 2007 and PowerPoint 2007 support.
I am trying to figure out the scheduling for the next release but we will definitely include the latest odf-converter code in our next release.

I just want to say that one of my co-worker's powerpoints opened wonky even when she didn't save it as .pptx. Microsoft Power Point could not display her graphics and charts in readable fashion, but it opened beautifully in NeoOffice.
NeoOffice is awesome. |

Nifty, good news.
FWIW we're planning on integrating the preliminary PPTX import support into 2.2.1 coming soon. The fixes we need for odf-converter have been submitted to that project as patches.
