Package: libreoffice-common
Version: 1:3.4.5-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

'man libroffice' mentions converting certain file formats: 

    % man libreoffice | grep -n "\-\-convert\-to" | tail -n +2
    53:       --convert-to output_file_extension[:output_filter_name]  [-outdir  output_dir]
    61:              --convert-to pdf *.doc
    65:              --convert-to pdf:writer_pdf_Export -outdir /home/user *.doc

...the examples indicate 'pdf' works.  'pdf' is the only output 
format cited.

Using a 'ppt' file as input, I've also had success with:

    --convert-to odi
    --convert-to swf

These should all be documented.  

There should also be a way for users to list all possible outputs.
Something like 'mplayer -vo help' would be useful.  The output
list might be made context sensitive relative to the input.

Possible syntax, would be something like:

    loimpress  --convert-to list  /tmp/USCarriers.pps
    
...'list' could show only the formats 'pps' could be partially 
or completely converted to.  It would not show incompatible formats
such as 'xls'.

    loimpress  --convert-to list_all  /tmp/USCarriers.pps

...'list_all' would show all of the filters.  It would show
'xls'.



Hope this helps...
