Description Bastián Díaz 2013-03-03 20:08:57 UTC
This is an option that would be very helpful to find in the PDF export options in LO Impress.

Currently there how to get those results, you activate the "Print to file" (in postscript format) and then convert the document to PDF or another format (by operating system change difficulty) which makes the process somewhat confusing and unintuitive.

In practice I can name some utilities as uploading documents classes or workshops to academic web (like Moodle) where style "handouts" with space to write notes is ideal for students so they can print intheir homes before school or share the presentation with notes to other classmates to prepare for the presentation (or to see it during a presentation).

thanks

Could you please give more information to reproduce it.  What do you mean with the second paragraph.  In the menu item FILE you can find a function EXPORT AS PDF where you can also change the options of this PDF export or do you mean something else?

With the above I mean that in the menu to export to PDF (File / Export in PDF format), there are options to export a presentation to Impress visualizing them as "Slides, Handouts, Notes and Outline", which can be very helpful depending on circumstances.

Currently to achieve those results, I "print and file" LO Impress presentation, eg selecting the view "handouts", which generates a postscript I (*. Ps), which I then converted to PDF.

To replicate the behavior, simply go to the menu in PDF export, LO Impress and try to generate a PDF file of the current presentation as handouts. (opciónque currently there).

The idea is to implement an improvement to allow this behavior.

thanks
