Created attachment 46801 [details] presentation in ppt file looks different in Impres than in PowerPoint I have found presentation that looks different in Impres than in PowerPoint. I deleted all content except of problem in MSOffice2003. In attachmen is presentation where placed one gif picture. In LibreOffice this picture placed in wrong place. On Linux also looks without transparency (picture inside of black square). CAUTION to Linux user: if press F5, office hangs. Produced on LibreOffice 3.4 beta 5 on Mandriva 64 bit and Windows xp 32 bit
Created attachment 46802 [details] screenshot of presentation made on MSPowerPoint 2003
I have also found that the presentations that I create in Impress, once exported to PPT, they look different when opened in Powerpoint: usually the text is in a slightly different position, often making it difficult to read or just look misaligned. The workaround that I have to use when I have to do a presentation in a computer that doesn't have Impress is: always export the presentation to PDF format, and do my presentations using Acrobat Reader instead of Powerpoint. However, this is just a workaround. Ideally, the PPT export should produce a file that looked exactly the same in Impress as in Powerpoint.

Created attachment 58100 [details] Simple example of arrows not importing correcting from powerpoint into LO I run into lots of these problems and will try to post examples as I find them, if that is useful.
@ skiani@alum.mit.edu Thanks for attachment, it demonstrates Windows specific bug, wrong direction arrow >I run into lots of these problems and will try to post examples as I find them, >if that is useful. Useful! But for different problem in presentation should be different bugreports. For example this bugreport is about problem with GIF picture. And for wrong direction of arrow should be separate bugreport. And so on. Thanks again for help in bug hunting!
reproducible with LO 4.0.2.2 (Win7 Home, 64bit) Result: differences between MSO 2007 and LO: bird is mirrored and has a different animation speed
addition: bird in the left slide preview is correct, but in the main slide edit area totally displaced (really strange)
reproducible with LO 4.0.3.3 (Win 7 Home Premium 32bit) & LO 3.6.6.2 (Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS)
