ODP[edit]
After trying a lot of combinations I found these manual steps resulted in a pretty good conversion of a large (100 slide) OO Impress file into MediaWiki syntax (for the results, see v:User:Jtneill/Sandbox/odp to txt3):
- Using OO Impress, save odp as ppt
- Using MS PPT, save ppt as rtf
- Using OO Writer, save rtf as html
- Using OO Writer, export html as mediawiki syntax (txt)
- Using a text editor, open txt and search and replace:
- <center> -> == and </center> -> ==
- # -> * (if you want bullets rather than numbers)
- ’ -> '
- ‘ -> '
- †->
- – -> -
-  -> <
- ïƒ -> >
- “ -> "
- †-> "
Note that this approach does not include:
- Images
- Notes
i.e. it just provides the viewable slide headings and text
PDF[edit]
- pdf to MW syntax works OK-ish with OO Writer
