KPresenter file format? What about PDF?
by anonymous on Saturday 04/Jun/2005, @08:58
Hi, Andras,

I believe you that KPresenter is a very nice program and has a very nice file format. I would *love* to look at the presentation. But I can't, currently. Because I am on Windows. I guess a *lot* of people who read the Dot can not look at the KPresenter file on the spot. (And they may loose interest later). Unfortunately KDE is not yet in the powerful position to set the standard.

So please consider to convert your presentation slides into PDF. Offer that format and a link to it as an alternative. (However, do not switch completely to it -- that is not what I am asking for.) That would ensure that everybody can look at them, from all platforms.

I used KPresenter and I published the file as it was used for the presentation.
I'm sure that many readers of dot have it or can easily install it.
But for convenience here you can find the presentation in two other file formats:
http://kdewebdev.org/~amantia/presentation/quanta-for-your-needs.sxi (OpenOffice 1.1.1)
http://kdewebdev.org/~amantia/presentation/quanta-for-your-needs.pdf (PDF)

Of course both have drawbacks:
- the OpenOffice format does not show the colors as it should
- the PDF is large. As it is slow to generate on this machine, it will not yet be visible when I post this comment.
