Portable Document Format files (PDFs) are compatible with most platforms. Impress has the
ability to save files as PDF (the extension is .pdf) which can be viewed by anyone who has a
freely available PDF viewer. Most computers now come with a PDF viewer already
installed, like Adobe's Acrobat Reader. On Linux, look for “xpdf”; on Mac, use the Preview
application. However, if you do not have a PDF viewer or if you have a Unix operating
system, visit this link to get a free viewer:

Caution: Saving in PDF format does not retain animation and slide transitions and can
result in lost quality.
To export the presentation as a PDF:
1) Select File > Export as PDF. The Export window appears.
2) Select the location where you want the PDF file saved and type a name for the file.
3) Click Save. The PDF Options window appears. See Figure 38: PDF Options window.
4) In the Pages section, select which pages (slides) are to be included in the PDF. Define
a range of pages with a hyphen (example: 2-5).
5) In the Compression section, select the format most suitable for how the document
will be used. The compression choice affects both the quality of the PDF and its file
size.
Screen optimized will produce the smallest file size (best for emailing to people on
a slow internet connection) with the lowest quality (not very suitable for printing).
Print optimized will produce a somewhat larger file size but with greatly increased
print quality.
Press optimized will produce the largest file size with the highest quality (suitable
for professional printing).
6) Click Export. The PDF file is generated.
