Description xiphosurus 2009-10-05 22:59:06 UTC 
When you export from ODP to MS PPT, placeholders that had "Autofit Text" enabled
loses the autofitting. To replicate:

1) create new slide in ODP.
2) enable "Autofit Text" for the placeholder. 
3) enter maybe about 10 bullets points of text such autofitting kicks in.
4) save file as MS PPT 97/2000/XP format.
5) open PPT in a MS PPT XP.
6) you will see that the autofitting is lost.

Autofit in MS PPT XP can be re-enabled by clicking on the autocorrection button
beside the placeholder, BUT you would have to do this for EACH placeholder which
is a real pain if you have many slides.

For clarification, the ODP slide is created in Linux, exported to PPT in Linux,
and then viewed in MS-PPT in Windows.

cl->xiphosurus: you are using a feature that is not part of OpenOffice.org. It
has been added by your linux distribution.

Please note that anyone is allowed to ship their own derivate from
OpenOffice.org and add features to it. Often these features are not stable or
complete. It is advised that you use a build provided from the website
www.openoffice.org.

OpenOffice.org can and will not support problems caused by other distributions.
