- 1

- 2
Pick an address
Type a name and we'll tell you straight away whether it's free. That becomes the link: staroffice-slides.99helpers.site
- 3
Publish and share
Create a free account — that step exists so the file is yours to update, replace or delete — and the link is live within seconds.
The same three steps work for any file — see how file hosting works on 99helpers.com.
What happens when someone opens the link
The file downloads and opens in LibreOffice Impress.
Why host a SXI file instead of emailing it?
Old teaching and conference decks are worth preserving at a stable address, particularly where they're the only record of a talk.
Worth knowing before you publish
- LibreOffice opens SXI and saves as ODP or PPTX.
- Convert once so the content isn't tied to a legacy format.
- PDF export makes the slides readable in any browser.
