two slides with animations

Most of my presentations have animations in them. This includes drawings that
change, and text or drawn objects that appear/disappear.

I most often have to give my talks on computers that are not mine, so I
invariably have to export my talk to PDF.

The preferable way to do the animations is to use the built-in animation
functionality, which changes the transparency, the color, and the visibility of
objects. Unfortunately, the PDF export does not expand these different versions
of the same slide into several slides.

There is an extension, called "Expand Animations"
(https://github.com/monperrus/ExpandAnimations) that will partially do the
trick: any "appear" and "disappear" animations are respected by this extension.
Other animations, like change of transparency and color, do not export
properly.


This is a request for a comprehensive built-in implementation of PDF slide
export. The request is in line with comment by Document Foundation employee
Heiko Tietze who said "Anyway, exporting to PDF is essential to everybody and
we should make it easier to split the animations into several pages."
(https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=130360).

I've attached a two slide presentation containing different animations that I
would hope to export properly. I will also attach a the PDF version created by
the "Expand Animations" extension.
