Description aziem 2005-12-29 02:33:23 UTC 
OpenOffice.org cannot export images as links to PowerPoint format.  Instead, the
images become embedded.  Consequently, the files of presentations with many
images can become very large resulting in performance problems.

I checked with "2.0.1 RC5 German version WIN XP: [680m1(Build8990)]" and can
confirm the problem.

One for me
Comment 3 christian.guenther 2006-01-05 11:23:50 UTC 
I can reproduce the bug.
Please have a look.
Comment 4 marq 2006-01-14 11:21:44 UTC 
This bug makes it impossible for us to continue working with Impress.
Comment 5 sven.jacobi 2006-03-30 15:51:59 UTC 
accepted
Comment 6 marq 2006-04-02 12:49:50 UTC 
What does "accepted" mean? The bug was mentionned three months ago. Any chance 
a solution is found? Or is it a more fundamental problem?
Comment 7 sven.jacobi 2006-04-03 10:15:51 UTC 
Accepted does mean, that this issue has been reproducible and accepted by the
correct developer. Unless an issue is not accepted it might be possible that it
will be reassigned later.

The reason for the delay is my huge workflow, issues can't be fixed instantly,
so 3 month delay before a bug is being fixed is no rareness.

Thanks for clarification. I hope one day work load becomes reasonable for people
making openoffice possible ;)
Comment 9 marq 2006-12-25 04:16:30 UTC 
12 months later. What happened to this problem? Impossible to resolve?
Comment 10 aziem 2007-05-11 17:01:50 UTC 
Still in OOo 2.2.
