Save PowerPoint 2007 as PowerPoint 2003 using the Open Office SDK 2.0

Question

Can I use the Open Office SDK 2.0 to save a PowerPoint presentation created using OOXML in a PowerPoint 2003 presentation? I know if you open the 2007 file and click "Save As Is" to save it as a PowerPoint document from 97 to 2003, and I did not know if I could do this using this SDK.

The reason I ask this question is because I need to give the user the ability to save data on a website in Office 2007 or 2003 format. I would rather use the same code to create the document instead of having two paths code for PowerPoint 2003 and PowerPoint 2007.

Answer 1

Unfortunately no. The Open Office SDK 2.0 is created for and around System.IO.Packaging to work with the Open Document Format (a zip package that wraps all xml and other files for Office 2007, XPS, etc.) when processing the ECMA / ISO standard for formats Office 2007/2010.
