The .ppt/.pptx documents created by LibreOffice (I use RC2) can't be opened by Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer (with the support of 2007 formats) and Micrsoft Office Web Apps. MS PowerPoint Viewer says that the documents have a problem; MS Office Web Apps warns that the .ppt documents have a potential security problem and the .pptx documents are broken. However, MS Office PowerPoint can open these documents.

An .odp file of about 500 KB is saved as a .ppt file with the similar size, but it will be saved as a .pptx file with more than 6 MB. Perhaps this is why MS Office Web Apps says the .pptx documents are broken.

Please follow

and upload a small document that reproduces the issue but does not
contain something sensitive, so that it can get fixed.

Thanks.
