LibreOffice (/ ˈ l iː b r ə /) is a free and open-source office suite, a project of The Document Foundation.It was forked in 2010 from OpenOffice.org, which was an open-sourced version of the earlier StarOffice.The LibreOffice suite consists of programs for word processing, creating and editing of spreadsheets, slideshows, diagrams and drawings, working with databases,.

The developers of LibreOffice have just released version 3.6 of the Office program. It is a lesser known alternative to Microsoft Office and OpenOffice that is available as a web download or as a torrent.

LibreOffice 3.6 is a major release that introduces a number of feature updates and new features to the suite as a whole or individual programs.Most notably - probably - are the performance improvements in the new version that you will notice when importing Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents, working with pivot tables in Calc (The Excel-like application) and when you scroll and layout large documents.Here is a list of changes and additions that sound useful for users of the program. I prefer MS Office. I gave OOo a full year of devotion several years ago, but ultimately found the advanced features, such as wizards for mail merge, etc to be completely unworkable. The same held true for the macro language and editor, whereas I can do pretty well in MS’s VBA, especially with the help of its excellent editor.It was when I found that changing Case in OOo was a Style property instead of an absolute character change that I gave up. Case changes were not being copied over into other programs via the clipboard (in Windows, anyway), and my attempts to reason that this was a weakness were met with “religious” resistance. I’m patient, but not when it comes to attitude.

I went back to MS Office, set up my macros again, and tripled my productivity.I recently reevaluated OO and then LO, and found little change. I’m sorry to say that this is a major factor keeping me in the MS ecosystem.

When I delve into Linux, I use LO, and it’s good for what it does. But once you get past the top level menu items, it unfortunately can’t compare to MS Office.

Paul B., I respect your choice, but it’s about one’s needs, tastes and habits, and they are different for different people. For me OO is better that MSO, and that’s why:I have often to edit and change large documents, and MSO didn’t learned to pick selected text to Find/Replace dialog automatically up to MSO 2007. Then I discovered that OO allows Autotext with tables, and MSO – not. Then I found that OO Calc works better with my favorite clipboard manager than MS Excel.More to it, with OO I can work with the same documents on 4 PCs working with different OSs – Win 7 Pro and Mac OS X in office, Win XP at Home, Win 7 Starter on my netbook in my bed or on the move.

The very thought of looking for 3 MSO copies to have the same possibility makes me nervous (even if pirated ones not costing bloody money).“wizards for mail merge” – I don’t know what they are and why I could need them. I believe that you do know and do need but I go my own ways:). LO 4 b2 is out, Martin. I see some nice improvements, including loading time and interface. But I am thoroughly frustrated trying to get to first base with the macros. The language is extremely verbose and documentation virtually as nonexistent as peer help. OO.o has a much better forum for that, while LO is using an “Ask LO” sort of “Get Satisfaction” thing that simply is not up to prime time.

IMO, the lack of a remotely workable macro system cripples this project an relegates it to only simple use. Too bad for us all, but as it stands it looks like regarding the price of MS office, the workman is worthy of his wages.
