Description fgraziosi 2006-11-27 01:35:01 UTC 
PDF Export function exports slices and, if selected, note in only one file.
There isn't a way to export only note. The export wizard must give possibility
to choice what You export (slices, note, both). 
Is usefull to have slices and note in distinct files.

Enhance "Export to PDF" feature to allow export of only notes and not slides.
 
Create a document -
click on the notes tab and add notes
select "file -> export as PDF"

You can select to export notes and a file is created with the slides at the top
and notes at the bottom of the page. There is no option to export only notes.
 
Checked for this feature on a MacBook Pro Mac OS X 10.5.4 using PowerPoint 2004
for mac and Impress 300_m8 and on Windows XP using PowerPoint 2007 and Impress
300_m8.
This feature is not available in PowerPoint or Impress.
Some workarounds have been posted to the OOo forum and in the OOo wiki.
 
From the wiki:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/OOoAuthors_User_Manual/Impress_Guide/Adding_and_formatting_notes


“If you want only the Notes pages, you will need to use some other program to
remove the unwanted pages of slides from the PDF."

There are a few tools available that will strip the slides from a pdf file,
leaving just the notes.

There does appear to be some interest in this enhancement.

This might not work in all cases. In my cases the split-application removed every printed and working url from the PDF files.
I need to export the working PDF for guiding the reader to additional internet-pages. 

A "Export Notes only" function would be very useful.
