Created attachment 72046 [details] console on master I attached console master (i use --enable-dbgutil)
Michael/Thorsten/Rodo: I don't know if it's purely filter part or Impress, anyway one for you? Rainer: I think we should consider this one as high/major since it seems export in pptx is broken. What's your opinion about this?
Just for the test, I tried to disable the bullet substitution (in unotools/source/misc/fontcvt.cxx, function ConvertChar::RecodeChar). I've been able to save the file with different name in a same format and no error message from Powerpoint.
Michael, Caolan: put you on cc following the last hint found in unotools/source/misc/fontcvt.cxx (see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58391#c5) + the fact you had already modified this file.
Works here as well. Opening test file with LO Version: 4.4.0.0.alpha2+ Build ID: a066acd8709ce69eae4fee3993dbb298e02eb8d5 TinderBox: MacOSX-x86_64@49-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2014-11-09_09:59:47 Save as new pptx > opens fine with MS Powerpoint.
