What are the 6.x Impress Import/Export Filters?

[AlexKemp]

On 8 Oct 2015 I detailed the LO-5.0.0 Impress import/export filters. Life is 5 years further down the stream, so what are the current Impress filters?

[AlexKemp]

◦ LO-5.x Impress filters

◦ LO-6.x Base filters
◦ LO-6.x Calc filters
◦ LO-6.x Draw filters
◦ LO-6.x Graphics filters
◦ LO-6.x Math filters
◦ LO-6.x Writer filters

Starting with v.6.3, help includes File Conversion Filter Tables, linked from Starting LibreOffice Software With Parameters.

Well it only took 10 years to get them added, but better now than never, I guess.

Thanks, Mike.

It only takes one to create a patch to add something. In a volunteer-driven project, you are a part of, it looks awfully strange to see things like “it only took 10 years” from one of active participants. It would be the same as if I wrote a stupid thing like “it only took 5 years to update the list here”.

[AlexKemp]

Not stupid, Mike, simply observation of facts, both ways.

Your thin skin upsets other folks. Try to minimise your bile a little, please, for the benefit of the project.

[mikekaganski]

Oh and now you decide to try to put the blame on me, you who are deemed to be a troll for your unwarranted edits of others’ questions? (not to mention the reactions of high-ranked members?)

[AlexKemp]

I’ll take that as a ‘no’.

Mostly the same as the 21 Impress filters in LO-5; some are renamed + one or two I originally overlooked.
