OpenOffice.org Impress como alternativa Linux a Microsoft Office PowerPoint
Actualizado el
Nuestra opinión
OpenOffice.org Impress is a usable replacement for Microsoft PowerPoint for users who need basic slide creation, simple animations, and PDF export without requiring the full feature set of Office. It works well for students, small businesses, and hobbyists who value a free, cross‑platform tool and can tolerate occasional formatting quirks when exchanging files with PowerPoint users.

Impress can open most .ppt and .pptx files, but complex layouts, embedded media, or advanced animations may not translate perfectly. Export back to PowerPoint format works, though some formatting (fonts, spacing, animation timing) can be lost. For critical presentations, a quick visual check after conversion is advisable.

- Install OpenOffice.org from your distribution's repository or the official website.
- Open existing .ppt/.pptx files in Impress to verify layout and animation.

Preguntas frecuentes
Can I use PowerPoint templates in Impress?
You can open a .pptx template, but complex theme elements may not render exactly; you may need to recreate master slides in Impress.
Is there a way to collaborate on an Impress deck with a PowerPoint user?
Collaboration is limited to exchanging files; there is no built‑in real‑time editing, so coordinate changes via versioned .odp or .pptx files.
Does Impress support video embedding like PowerPoint?
Impress can embed video files, but playback support depends on the installed codecs and may be less seamless than PowerPoint's integrated player.
