LibreOffice’s interface is enough like Microsoft Office’s that few users will have trouble adjusting to it. You can also use the Draw app to create presentations. I found the Draw program and its myriad shapes and objects particularly useful and easy. A design wizard and a decent collection of nice-looking templates help to get you started.īoth the Math (formula rendering and shaping) and Draw applications are capable.

PDFs don’t require proprietary software, namely PowerPoint, to render. However, Impress is quite facile at creating presentations, and it exports to PDF, which is the format I see most often these days. LibreOffice Impress has impressive presentation creation capabilities, though PowerPoint compatibility isn’t quite 100%. Impress didn’t display some portions of PowerPoint presentations imported, so in that regard it was one of the less successful modules in LibreOffice.
