Calendar Grey October 21, 2004
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Fedora Core 2 introduces OpenOffice.org 1.1.2, featuring a wide array of improvements and crucial bug resolutions since the last iteration.
This update is equivalent to the Fedora Core 3 version of OpenOffice.org

Summary

OpenOffice.org is an Open Source, community-developed, multi-platform

office productivity suite. It includes the key desktop applications,

such as a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation manager, formula

editor and drawing program, with a user interface and feature set

similar to other office suites. Sophisticated and flexible,

OpenOffice.org also works transparently with a variety of file

formats, including Microsoft Office.

Usage: Simply type "ooffice" to run OpenOffice.org or select the

requested component (Writer, Calc, Draw, Impress, etc.) from your

desktop menu. The ooffice wrapper script will install a few files in

the user's home, if necessary.

The OpenOffice.org team hopes you enjoy working with OpenOffice.org!
