• Great Software

LibreOffice is the result of over twenty years software engineering. Designed from the start as a single piece of software, it has a consistency other products cannot match. A completely open development process means that anyone can report bugs, request new features, or enhance the software. The result: LibreOffice does everything you want your office software to do, the way you want it to.

• Easy to use

LibreOffice is easy to learn, and if you're already using another office software package, you'll take to LibreOffice straight away. And if you already have files from another office package, LibreOffice will read them with no difficulty.

• Use it immediately

For people used to other office software, LibreOffice is a pleasant surprise. It's so straightforward! Because LibreOffice is one piece of software, everything works consistently between applications. Even the help system is the same. You don't even have to know which application was used to create a document - LibreOffice will use the correct one. You only need to install once and you've got your the complete office suite.

• No need to retype

We understand that many people already have documents which they have created using other common office software packages. LibreOffice can read these files with a very high degree of accuracy, making migration to LibreOffice very straightforward. In fact, we have reports where LibreOffice has been able to read files which the original software package had said were corrupted and unusable. If your friends or colleagues use different software, you can still swap files with them.

• Better for you

LibreOffice contains all the office software you need, in one single package. You don't have to worry which version to install: one installation program provides everything. The installation also includes features which some expensive rivals do not - for example, the ability to create .pdf files when you want to guarantee what the recipient sees on their computer. There is also a growing range of extensions: additional features that any developer can provide.

• Part of a community

When you're starting something new, it's great to know tens of millions of people have been there before you. LibreOffice is developed, translated, supported, and promoted by an international community of tens of thousands of enthusiasts. If you have ever waited for ages for paid-for support from a commercial software provider, community support from enthusiastic and knowledgeable volunteers may come as a surprise. You may even find yourself talking to people who have developed or translated the software you are using. Welcome to the community!

The Complete Office Suite

LibreOffice is more than a collection of five superb tools.

Unlike some competitors, this suite was not created from a collection of separate pieces of software. From the start, it was designed as one complete office package.

• All the packages have a similar "look and feel" making them very easy to use, with common "learn once use everywhere" tools like the Styles and Formatting. LibreOffice takes its "look and feel" from your computer - if you change your desktop, LibreOffice will change to match.
• The same tools are used consistently across the suite - for example, the tools you use to work with graphics within Writer are also found in Impress and Draw.
• You don"t need to know which application was used to create a particular file - you can "File Open" any LibreOffice file from anywhere and the correct application will be launched.
• All the packages share a common spell-checker, etc.; and if you change an "Option" in one package, it"s changed in them all.
• Information can be transferred easily between all the packages.
• All the components save in OpenDocument format, the new international standard for office documents. This XML based format offers substantial disk savings compared to common competitors' formats. It also means you can access your data from any OpenDocument compliant software.
• All the packages are installed in one single operation, using the installation process you are used to on your computer.
• All the packages are released under the same open licensing model - there are no hidden charges now or in the future. Everything you need in an office productivity suite - get it today!
