LibreOffice Impress als Linux-Alternative zu PowerPoint Viewer

Aktualisiert am

Unser Fazit

LibreOffice Impress is a solid replacement for PowerPoint Viewer if you need to view .ppt and .pptx files with full support for animations, transitions, hyperlinks, and embedded media. While it’s a full-featured editor, its read-only mode works well for viewing. It’s ideal for users who need reliable playback on Linux without editing. The interface is more complex than a minimal viewer, but functionality is complete and actively maintained.

LibreOffice Impress reliably opens .ppt and .pptx files created in Microsoft PowerPoint, including those with animations, transitions, and embedded media. While very high compatibility is typical, complex formatting or rare legacy effects may not render exactly. It does not save in proprietary Microsoft formats by default but can export to PDF, PNG, or ODP without issue. Compatibility is well-tested across versions.
