Different Viewing Options

Viewing your OpenOffice Impress slide show in different ways is one of the most useful features. You can quickly switch to Slide Sorter view to rearrange slides easily, or see how your presentation will look in the handouts that you plan to provide for your audience.

More Toolbars

The most commonly used toolbar, the Standard toolbar is located at the top of the OpenOffice Impress window. It contains the usual command icons such as New, Open, Cut, Copy, Paste and it even contains a really helpful icon to export your slide show directly to PDF format -- which is quickly becoming the standard for printing and emailing documents.

A second toolbar is located just under the Standard toolbar. It is the Line and Filling toolbar. This handy toolbar allows you to quickly edit graphic elements that you may choose to add to your slides, such as lines, arrow styles and fill colors to name a few.
