Re: [libreoffice-users] word count in impress

Hi Thomas:

        I think that I have a solution using GNU / Linux Ubuntu, or 
maybe the solution it would be able with other program similar that you 
can find:

    1) Install the program: gpdftext (GTK+ text editor for ebook PDF 
files, gpdftext opens a simple text-based PDF file, typically
intended for reading on an ebook reader and loads the text into a text 
editor window, autoformatting the text for long lines and paragraph breaks.
gpdftext is useful when the downloaded PDF uses a small font or wastes a 
lot of space in the margins so that a plain text file would display in a 
more comfortable font. gpdftext supports spell checking and editor font 
selection
and can save ASCII content as PDF.) Web site: 
https://sourceforge.net/directory/os:linux/?q=gpdftext

    2) Save the Impress Presentation in .pdf format

    3) Open the Impress Presentation with gpdftext

    4) gpdftext convert the .pdf document in simple format text

    5) Save the document as .txt

    6) Open the document with Writer an use the tool that it has: 
Menu-> Word Count

I hope this help,

Regards,

Jorge Rodríguez
