3.4 Using Presentations with Impress
Use OpenOffice.org Impress to create presentations for screen display or printing, such
as slide shows or transparencies. If you have used other presentation software, you can
move comfortably to Impress, which works very similarly to other presentation software.
Impress can open and save Microsoft Powerpoint presentations, which means you can
exchange presentations with Powerpoint users, as long as you save your presentations
in Powerpoint format.

The category is the folder where the template is stored.
There are two ways to create a presentation:
• Create an empty presentation
Opens Impress with a blank slide. Use this option to create a new presentation
from scratch, without any preformatted slides.
• Create a presentation from a template
Opens Impress with your choice of template. Use this option to create a new
presentation with a predesigned OpenOffice.org template or a template you've
created or installed yourself, such as your company's presentation template.
